Yesterday the original Night of the Living Dead poster I bought arrived and I was happy to see that it was in better shape than I thought. It looked like it had some stains on some spots on the edges, but when it got here and I examined there were none. Going back to the pictures he had taken of it I was able to figure out that it was shadows of his hand or the camera. http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/9787/notldmovieposterfull.jpg

It has a few minor tears and the one bigger one at the top, but all the paper is still there so I'm happy.

Nice. About how much did this thing cost? Arm? Leg? :p

I would be so worried about authenticity with stuff like this. Was this an eBayed item, through a friend or some other means?

I'd love to own original posters from the first 3 films...but some of the high prices on ebay and not knowing HOW original they are gives me pause so I tend not to bid.

It's great that you got a nice deal and are pleased with your purchase!

I paid $700 for it. I've been buying movie posters since the very early 80's and it's clearly original. Also, the person I got it from has a good reputation on Ebay (5000+) for selling movie posters though I did not get it from Ebay.

That is a very nice example, congrats. I take it you'll have this baby professionally framed?

Yeah, the big question is if I should have it linen backed or not. It's a tough call though it would very much benefit appearance wise from it. I rate it between a 7-8 currently.
