Hey Guys,
These new operations are amazing. I went to dinner the other
evening and while driving home down Ventura Blvd. in my neck of the woods, I saw
4 of those stores along about a three mile trek, one of which was right next
door to the restaurant I was eating at. The windows were covered with huge signs
offering to "sell on ebay". I wondered to myself how lucrative such a business
could be. I mean the rent along Ventura Blvd. is about $3-$4 a square foot and
while most of them were small shops, about the size of a Mail Boxes Etc., it's
still overhead. I will be curious to see how long they last.

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.

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.
