I really appreciate all the info! I called Jerry today and he's never had the Eraserhead poster and doesn't know how to identify the 1st release. I think based on all the discussion and mainly the lynchposters.com info, the most likely 1st release is the block letters, no lines in printing, but must be folded, rolled is a likely reprint.
Thanks again Rich Halegua, Richard Evans and Simon!
