I think I can answer that: This auction was run by "Door-to-Door" auctions
-- one of those new services where people just hand over their stuff to them and
they auction it for them. A lot of people have questioned if these services can
provide the kind of expertise needed to properly auction collectibles. In this
case, technically, they did put it in the right category. Technically, it *is* a
reproduction in some ways I suppose. But most collectors would consider it an
"original" -- assuming it is the original as issued for the promotion of a
release of the film. Anyone ever hear of any later-date reproductions of these
large-size 3D holographic posters? Seems it would be a pretty expensive
endeavor.

reproduction of a 2001 post card?
All the 3-D almost one sheet size posters I have seen for 2001 have the
CINERAMA logo on them - http://cinerama.topcities.com/20013d.htm.
I guess maybe when the movie played at non CINERAMA theatres they could of had
the same 3-D poster without the CINERAMA logo? I wonder why the seller put it
under the Posters > Reproductions > 2000-Now EBAY
category if it was a 1968 original release? Does anyone have the
pressbooks for 2001 for the Cinerama release and non Cinerama release? That
would show all the posters available to the movie theatre.

Looks original to me. The 3-D displays for 2001 not only came in the
postcard size, but also as 11x14s and in app. one-sheet size.
What you can tell from the images, this appears to be 3-D.
Seems to me somebody got a steal here...

$481 for a reproduction? This looks like a
blow up of one of the 3-D postcards I have of 2001 a space
odyssey.
