The robotrix face (eyes) look more like an alien than the original design.
The auction house says this piece has an estimated value of $40-50K?

The auction also has a bizarre bas-relief sculpture of the German Metropolis
poster art, with the face looking like something by Giger.
Attributed to designer of the poster Heinz Schulz-Neudman.

Mopo,
Here's an interesting poster for sale this weekend at a poster auction in New
York. Could this be one of the first images of a robot on a movie poster?
