Superman (1978) Original Silver Logo Advance Teaser Movie Poster

Description: Superman: The Movie (1978) Original Silver Logo Advance Teaser Movie Poster - Shiny! Even before one of the most famous ad campaigns in movie history ("You'll Believe A Man Can Fly"), there was this: A simple 'S' logo and the promise: "Coming This Christmas." This is a rare collectible, a spectacular slice of motion picture history -- and a memento of the greatest (and funnest, if that's a word) of all comic book superhero movies. (I have another similar advance poster available on ebay, too.) Check out the photos. You'll see a few mysterious anomalies at the edges and near the bottom. I don't know what they are, but they've been there for as long as I can remember. Maybe the icy Fortress of Solitude melted a little due to climate change. Or General Zod somehow managed to wreak some mischief in the 2D world. Frankly, it looks kinda cool. Adds character. * * * * * Recapture the lost magic of Big Screen Motion Pictures with a genuine movie theater one-sheet! In the Before Times, movies were social and cultural events, larger-than-life communal experiences presented in special places in the dark. Miss that? Turn any room into a movie theater lobby with a regulation-sized poster (usually 27 x 41 inches), direct from my old theater to yours... Every piece is a genuine, collectible slice of film history -- 100-percent exhibitor certified! Accept no substitutes! FREE USPS DOMESTIC SHIPPING UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED. There are so many hidden expenses -- from postage, handling and proper packing materials to various ebay seller fees -- and as a long-time ebay buyer I generally just want to know exactly how much somebody is asking for something (plus your local taxes, of course). So, as a new seller, I'm trying to price my items to include all other associated costs within my control so it's easy for YOU, the buyer, to see your actual cost. Please keep that in mind when considering the total price and the collectibility of the item. Details below. ABOUT THE POSTERS AND THE GEEZER SELLING THEM: I'm an old movie theater booker and proprietor (among other things), with a lifelong penchant for collecting (movie posters, LPs and CDs, DVDs and Blu-rays, vintage audio equipment, tiki mugs...). The one-sheets I'm selling are ORIGINAL, HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE posters from my personal collection, unless otherwise specified -- actual theatrical one-sheets (27 x 40-41 inches, depending on the date they were produced), supplied to American exhibitors for many decades exclusively by National Screen Service (NSS). I wish you could see them Actual Size, because their visual impact is more striking than ever now that most people watch movies at home on flat-screen TVs that are only slightly larger (or smaller) than these lobby posters. These are the real things, NOT REPRODUCTIONS. You can verify their authenticity by looking at the NSS number and release date in the lower right corner. Most one-sheets were NSS folded (that's the way they stored and shipped them), but I've kept these flat or rolled for the last 40-50+ years, since most of them are from the 1970s and 1980s. They've spent a lot of time under my bed, safely sealed in storage containers. Many of them were actually used in movie theater lobbies and display cases, which accounts for some frayed edges, crinkles, pinholes, tears, or tape (on the back) -- which don't affect the image printed on the poster itself. These were hard-working one sheets and they have developed "character" over the decades! Please CHECK THE PHOTOS because these are the actual posters you will receive. I've tried to add close-ups of relevant details and/or any minor blemishes. The photos were taken in natural daylight and the only picture "adjustments" were to brightness, sharpness and contrast to make them as accurate as possible. I placed them on a cardboard flat resting on a white bedsheet and in some cases used quarters for scale -- and to hold down the edges for the photo. I'm a new seller, but I've been buying on ebay since the 1990s, so I figured it was time I returned the favor. PRICES INCLUDE SHIPPING. All one-sheets will be shipped rolled in sturdy 2- or 3-inch by 30-inch cardboard mailing tubes designed for that very purpose (unless, as noted, there's some good reason not to). US SHIPPING ONLY via USPS PRIORITY MAIL or USPS GROUND ADVANTAGE (usually 2-5 business days) with tracking and insurance. Thank You and Please Enjoy the Feature Presentation!
