It's a pity he had it linenbacked. Since it was apparently in nice
condition, somebody might have actually paid 18 K for an UNBACKED
poster...

From his story, he's outside the collecting circle.
Neat story of provenance too.
I obtained a few posters when I was younger simply because I
enjoyed them, never really expecting any of them to be or become
valuable. I bought the "Creature" poster from a Manitou Springs
Colorado antique store in 1977 along with a couple of other 1950's
posters that I liked. During most of the intervening time since
then they have remained peacefully folded and put away in room
temperature storage. You can imagine my surprise when I
accidentally discovered that the "Creature" was a valuable rarity.
May well be all he says it is, but knowing what we know now,
personally, I wouldn't with a barge pole.
