WE WELCOME ALL BIDDERS

ANYONE CAN BID on this item, however, those with LESS THAN +5 FEEDBACK or private feedback MUST CONTACT US with a valid name, address, and phone number before bidding or their bids will be canceled. We apologize for any inconvenience, but please understand we have adopted this policy due to problems we've had in the past from non paying bidders.

This is truly an incredible find!! Most collectors do not even know this poster exists!!

This is a beautiful example of an original 27"x41" U.S. one sheet movie poster from the classic "JAWS 2". These are impossible to find in ANY condition! This is the extremely rare unreleased version. It was mistakenly made with the wrong artwork and was never released to theaters. Only a HANDFUL of these exist, this is the only one we have ever seen!! It is unknown exactly how many survived, but most were certainly destroyed. The printers realized their error a few days after printing them. They re ran them with the regular artwork of the girl waterskiing and that was the version released to theaters. Straight from a former Gore Graphics employee. Gore Graphics used to print original movie posters for the studios in the 70's and 80's.

A long time can go by without one of these coming up for sale. This poster is ROLLED. It has never been folded!! UNUSED!! Graded C9 Near Mint condition. You will have trouble finding a nicer one.

If a vintage poster is in terrific unrestored condition like this one (EX C8 or better), many experienced collectors will place a premium on it (when compared to a linen backed/restored one). Most experienced collectors prefer unrestored items to restored ones because they believe they will appreciate more in value.

When buying collectibles it is always wise to buy "the best of the best" as they stand a greater chance of appreciation. This poster is considered to be within that class and is definitely INVESTMENT QUALITY.

An iconic image.

Beautiful artwork.

Bright vivid colors.

There are no known reprints and/or reproductions of this poster.

This is guaranteed to be a genuine ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER issued by the studio when the film was first released.

We are absolutely certain it is authentic.

If the buyer wishes, we will include a letter from the Gore Graphics employee this comes from explaining it's provenance.


Please be aware that most original movie posters issued before the mid 1980's were issued FOLDED (over 95%). This is NOT considered a defect. They were shipped to theaters this way. Vintage rolled posters do exist, however they are extremely rare. We can have any folded poster LINEN BACKED which will make the fold lines virtually disappear.

Also please note that most movie posters were actually used at the theater and some will contain slight imperfections like writing on the back, pin holes, fold wear, etc. These are all very common and to be expected, but, if they bother you, all these minor flaws can be remedied in the linen backing process. LINEN BACKING preserves and can actually increase the value of a poster. For the most part any flaws will be fixed and the poster will appear to be in Near Mint condition. For more details on Linen Backing please email us or call 602 309 0500 and ask for Dave.

Unless otherwise specified, poster measurements quoted above are approximate to the nearest inch. For example, if we say a poster is 27"x41" its precise measurements may be something like 26 3/4" x 40 7/8". This is quite common for all original movie posters.

BEWARE OF "FAKE" MOVIE POSTERS!!

There are bootlegs, reprints, reproductions, re-strikes, re-issues, etc. all over ebay. WE DO NOT SELL THESE! There are many unscrupulous dealers who successfully pass off these posters as originals. They have been doing it for years! These fakes are almost indistinguishable from originals, only experts can tell. Many who buy them don't know they have been taken, only years later when they sell them do they find out they are worthless. Most are from popular movies from the 70's and 80’s. They usually appear in insert size 14x36 and one sheet size 27x41. These posters can be found from dealers who seem trustworthy because of their great feedback. Again, all we can say is BEWARE!! For more information please see our EBAY GUIDES link above.


We grade our posters according to the Iguide Universal 10-Point Movie Poster Grading Scale which is summarized below:

    C10 Mint - Investment quality. No perceptible flaws of any kind.
    C9 Near Mint - Investment quality. Minor flaw on an otherwise unused poster.
    C8 Excellent - Investment quality. A few minor defects.
    C7 Very Good to Excellent - Fine condition. Still a very nicely preserved item.
    C6 Very Good - The typical used poster in average condition.
    C5 Good to Very Good - A heavily-worn item.
    C4 Good - Below average but still suitable for display.
    C3 Fair - Heavily worn, but yet still complete.
    C2 Poor to Fair - An extremely worn, possibly even incomplete item.
    C1 Poor - The lowest grade, representing items in the lowest possible condition.

    For details on this grading system please see our Ebay Guide GRADING / CONDITION.

    Some of our posters are "between grades". For example, a C8-C9 poster will contain all the qualities/characteristics of a Near Mint C9 except for one or two very minor flaws that we believe prevent it from being a true C9.

    HOW WE PACKAGE OUR POSTERS

    We take extra special care when we package your item. For folded posters we put them in a plastic bag or envelope and in between two or four pieces of STRONG cardboard and tape it together before placing in the shipping envelope/box. We stamp “DO NOT BEND” all over the outside of the package. For rolled posters we put them in a STRONG 3” or greater diameter tube with thick walls at least 3/16” or 1/4“ or thicker. We roll the poster into a smaller diameter than the tube. This is VERY IMPORTANT because it gives the edges strength and helps to prevent them from getting wrinkled. We then wrap with paper or plastic and tape it closed and put soft cushioning material (also very important!) on the ends to prevent them from getting damaged. We stamp “FRAGILE: DO NOT BEND” all over the outside of the package.

    EUROPEAN CUSTOMERS PLEASE READ

    To protect ourselves, we insure our items for the FULL AMOUNT. Import Duties for the European Union apply to any item bought overseas whether or not we list it as a gift on the shipping manifest. In the UK for example, they apply to any gift over £35 and to any item that is not a gift over £18. These costs can be quite substantial and include a Value added Tax and a Parcel Force Clearance Fee. These combined charges can add up to 25% or more to your final cost. For other European countries the charges will differ. Please check with your postal system on their procedure for packages from overseas so you are not unpleasantly surprised.
