Thanks.  I will pass that information along.

If that is all that you have ever sold (236 records out of 1 million sales), I 
would argue that they are fairly scarce.  But I am not convinced (based on the 
sale prices) that these garner a premium over the corresponding 1-sheets.  
Would you agree?

Subject: Re: [MOPO] What do you call this size poster?

It is called a "half subway", and measures 29 1/2 x 45 1/2 or so. Full subway 
posters measure 45 x 60.

In the 1970s and 1980s, studios were creating "subway posters" for many 
releases, which were 45" x 60" horizontally-shaped posters that were glued up 
on walls all over New York City (hence the name "subway poster"). They also 
made these smaller "subway" posters which measure approximately half the size 
of a regular "subway" poster (usually around 29" x 45"), and look like a 
one-sheet, only bigger, but they have information about one or more specific 
New York theaters then-currently showing that movie. 


Here are a bunch of them:

  A friend of mine has this poster from Raiders of the Lost Ark which is folded 
and bigger than a 1-sheet (not a 3 sheet).  It has NYC theater information on 
the bottom as well.  I have uploaded a picture to the internet at:

  What is this size called?  And what is it worth?  Is this particularly rare 
(and if so, does anyone care)?

  Thanks,

  Evan
