"Good" condition usually means it looks like garbage in a frame. The poster in question was linen-backed, which costs approximately $200 these days.

And emovie sold a folded copy in "good" condition, in June of 2013, for $82.00 (£ 50.23 ) So, £ 245 seems to be on the hefty side of the price scale.
