Gotta agree with Phil, the Peak art for ST2 is beautiful.  
I seem to remember back when the film premiered here in the States, the Peak 
art 'disappeared' and the studio slapped together that ugly-ass photo sheet in 
it's stead.
Does anyone know whether there is any truth to that 'rumor?'
I have also heard that the art was in England (where it was used as the Intl 
one-sheet) and didn't get to the States in time for the printing of the poster. 
Maybe, that's how it 'disappeared?'
Recently, Rich sold one at movieposterbid.com. and Bruce has sold both one 
sheets and daybills with this art.
Any backstory is appreciated...
Ted

Funny  I didn't think the art was that great.  
Ricardo Montalban  looks like Scott Baio in a gray fright wig and Nimoy and 
Shatner seem like illustrated after-thoughts nevermind looking 
indifferent......

  It is. The most common version (in English) was a 
  UK one sheet.
  The best poster on one of the best (if not the 
  best) of the Shatner/Nimoy TREK films.

    I believe that is the international style.
