A CHRISTMAS STORY

1983

US 40x60 Original Movie Poster ROLLED EX-NM C8-C9 

EXTREMELY RARE COMPARED TO A ONE SHEET. A vertical format American movie poster measuring 40"x60" printed on a heavy card stock material. Most 40"x60"’s feature the same artwork as the one sheet and were issued rolled. They were primarily offered for major motion pictures only and were displayed both inside and outside of theatres. A 40x60 poster display would cost the theater up to 20 times as much as a one sheet to rent. Only a few hundred of these were printed, and it was only printed once. Unlike the one sheet which was printed in quantities of 10,000 and up. The NSS number is normally found on the side on the poster, as opposed to the lower bottom as is the case with one-sheets. VERY difficult to find in Near Mint condition because the card stock can crease easily. Studios have stopped issuing these.
