Richard,
I should probably give you the full statement from the USPS website:
Media Mail® service is a cost efficient way to mail books, sound
recordings, recorded video tapes, printed music, and recorded
computer-readable media (such as CDs, DVDs, and diskettes). Media
Mail can not contain advertising except for incidental announcements
of books. The maximum weight for Media Mail is 70 lbs.
I think they might complain if you tried to send any sort of poster
by media mail.

Roger,
Thanks for the info. Your media mail quote below actually makes me
believe that what I am shipping can be sent media. I think I might
have not mentioned or mistated.... the rolled poster I am shipping
is not a movie poster and is a promo poster put out by Warren
Publications in the 1970s with an image of Dr Creepy. It just
shows the character made famous in their Creepy magazine and the
only text is the copyright line in the bottom of the poster.
My thanks to all of you for your notes on this and your 'always
welcome' advice.

One could make a weak argument that the following posters can be
shipped via media mail:
