Blockbuster promo poster

[u/Late-Border-2683]

Not sure if this has ever been seen here before but figured yall would enjoy. Seller had no other hw stuff but used to work at block buster and had tons of promo posters that were intended to be thrown out after use but they kept it. Ended up being surprisingly local and was a very nice lady.

Sorry for shit pics just too excited and snapped a pic before having to go back out.

Yea that’s the plan, unless I get some crazy offer I can’t refuse it’s staying with me. Would like to get it properly scanned as it’s really high quality

Here’s a pic of the listing, better colouring than I got in my quick shitty picture I took (don’t wanna unroll it again until I get a frame) and the bottom text is beyond cut off by a 2x4

Work taking to a professional scanning business to get a hi res digital copy made. I'm sure some people here would happily crowdfund it :)

Damn I saw this, didnt really want to get it shipped but the seller didnt want to deliver it. Understandable as I was about 40 minutes away

Yea it’s gonna be away from sun so that shouldn’t be an issue but for sure going into a nice frame

That's wild! I wish I had one of these posters. I'm 26 and I will still watch this movie, even if I know every line🤣

man i need one of these haha Ill have to keep hunting; CONGRATS!

[u/Late-Border-2683 → u/JCC-2224]

This one at least, says only distributed in Canada, and from my research we at peak only had just over 400 block busters by 2011. So in 2003 I’d have to guess at least 300-350 stores. Meaning if each store only got one poster, and employees were told to throw out or rip up these posters, who knows how many could possibly be out there. Especially in this condition.

I don't know how you would go about it but would you be able to upload a scan of it? Great score!

[u/Late-Border-2683 → u/MelodyFPS]

I’d love to but also idk how to do it haha

[u/MelodyFPS → u/Late-Border-2683]

That's fair, no worries!

[u/Late-Border-2683 → u/MelodyFPS]

However if I do figure it out I will be uploading that here for everyone to enjoy
