Help with a Night of the Living Dead poster

[boxofficebrian]

I found this near my office today, but I can't find this poster ANYWHERE on the net... what release is it from and is it worth picking up for $40?
I'm not a fan of the film, but figured it might be worth picking up to try and trade or sell into something I want?



Thanks all!
(It appears to have been rolled.)

Looks like a commercial poster to me.

I'd go for the "Under Secret Orders" poster myself

Is there any specific printer's info on the bottom border anywhere? A date? Copyrighted by any company etc?

Ooops...my bad... i misread your first post... i thought you had bought it.....

Jeff,
I have them holding it until tomorrow... I told them I wanted to run it past a friend that might want it   and I'd get back to them.

Sadly, I am really coming up empty handed with this one. I was so hoping it was a diamond in the rough and I could use it to trade into something nifty on my want list.

I cant tell for sure, but it doesn't look like it was ever folded either. (?)

Hey Brian,

Looking close at the pic of the poster you found, and a legit OS from 1968, your copy looks to be missing the logo for the releasing company, which was Continental Distributing, Inc as well as the NSS number right below the logo (68/321). Take a look here... a little down n dirty side by side compare.



There is other info under the lower line of credits, inc the 1968 copyright of Continental Distributing, in the lower left corner, which should be there .. but I cant see from the angle of your pic, if yours has anything there. Check out this supersize image from HA:

Like Ari said it looks to be a commercial poster. Like Chris said go for the one behind it if it is legit.

Went back and there isn't any printer info under the credits..it must be a commercial reprint. :/ Thought I found a gem.

The poster underneath it is in good shape and $40... is it worth it?

Hey Brian.

Here is a listing of Under Secret Orders one sheets that emovie has sold, sorted by most recent date sold. If legit, 40 bucks isnt too bad at all.
