Measurements: Items are not measured exactly. Unless otherwise specified, measurements quoted above are approximate to the nearest inch. For example, if we say a one sheet poster is 27″ x 41″ its precise measurements may be closer to 26 3/4″ x 40 7/8″ (or something similar). This slight variance is quite common for all original movie posters. ***************ABBREVIATIONS IN TITLE DESCRIPTION*************** ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER (U.S.A.): Poster that was issued for a movie by the National Screen Service (NSS), or by a movie studio, or by another company authorized by the studio for display in an actual movie theater or for promotional use at the time of the films release. Posters that were made to be sold to the public in stores or online are reproductions/reprints and are NOT original movie posters, even if they were printed around the time of the films release. Rerelease and posters with “Academy Award” on them are also “original” but they are usually considered less desirable. NSS (National Screen Service): From 1939 until the mid-1980s the NSS distributed almost 90% of all American movie posters. During the 1960’s and 70’s they had at least 6 regional print shops: New Jersey, Cleveland, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Wichita, and Dallas. They produced, printed, distributed and stocked all of the materials for most of the major movie studios. NSS was bought out by Technicolor, Inc. in 2000. Movie studios mostly now print and distribute their own advertising materials Folded & Rolled Posters: Older posters, prior to the mid 1980’s were usually (not always) issued folded while newer posters are issued rolled. Vintage original movie posters were normally printed in very limited quantities, thus they are rarer. All of them were not meant to be saved. After their initial use they were supposed to be returned to the studio or destroyed Authentic original movie posters usually contain an NSS information tag/paragraph and number. However, this is not always true. There are plenty of original movie posters that do not contain NSS info. To complicate matters, just because a poster has an NSS tagline, NSS number, and a GAU (printer’s union) logo, does not necessarily mean it is an original movie poster. There are many fakes and reprints that have this printed on them to make them appear more authentic. Studio (non NSS) issued posters: Considered original. These were a different print run at the time of the films initial release often printed directly for or by the studio for promotion and as giveaways to industry insiders. Not necessarily for use in an actual theater, but sometimes they did make their way there. May differ slightly or be exactly the same as the NSS printing (except for NSS tag and number at the bottom). In many cases these are rarer than the NSS issued poster. Common standard sizes include: One Sheet 27″x41″ or 27″x40″, Insert 14″x36″, Half Sheet 22″x28″, Three Sheet 41″x81″, Lobby Card 11″x14″, Window Card 14″x22″. Measurements on these can vary slightly, but usually by no more than a half inch or so. ADVANCE (ADV): Issued well in advance (usually many months) of a film’s release. Usually a one sheet. Very often similar to the regular issue but with an added line of text like “Coming This Christmas”. TEASER (TSR): Issued before a film is released. Usually a one sheet. Designed to pique interest “teasing” by showing very little. Very often contains plain text or a single picture without text. Usually rarer than the regular issues. INTERNATIONAL STYLE (INTL): A poster made in the U.S. for international use. Often featuring different artwork, but sometimes they use almost the same exact artwork/design. Sometimes the artwork/photos are more risqué and sometimes they feature an alternate title. Usually lacks a RATING (G, PG, or R) because foreign countries do not use the U.S. movie ratings system. STYLE A,B,C,D: Studios often issued many different styles of one sheets for the same movie. They still do. To differentiate them they were often marked as Style A or Style B etc. DOUBLE-SIDED (DS): In the early 1990’s some studios started issuing movie posters that were printed on both sides. This process makes the poster stand out more in a theater light box display. Today, most posters are printed with single sided and double sided versions. RE-RELEASE (RR): Re-release or reissue posters are original theater used movie posters, but have considerably lesser value than a first release poster. Most often you can determine a reissue by looking at the bottom of your poster in the right hand corner. There will usually be an R in front of a year number as in R56 if it is a reissue. Other clues are phrases such as “An Encore Hit”, “Brought Back by Popular Demand or Nothing Cut But the Prices. TRI-FOLDED: A poster with three machine fold horizontal foldlines but no vertical machine foldline. Poster will be shipped rolled in a tube. ***************ABOUT US*************** My wife & I have been selling vintage movie items on eBay since September 2000 and our feedback speaks for itself.
