no NSS generally means it is studio-produced paper that did not go through NSS distribution channels

I have a single LC(normal 11x14) in my collection(#3), and it appears to be
for international release, since it has no NSS number(if that's the
tell-tale sign...?).

Other markings that can help:

A First Artists presentation A SOLAR PRODUCTION
From Warner Bros.
A Warner Communication Company(plus logo)
G-General Audiences
Copyright 1978 First Artists Releasing
LITHO. IN U.S.A. (plus GAU logo)

Hope this sheds any light

Ben and I have been chatting about this subject the past few days.
IMDB says the film was not released domestically in 1978 but that it was
released internationally

however, a scan of Heritage archives shows 2 one sheets, both of which have
a G rating on them and a 1978 date.
Also some lobby cards are known to exist with the
1978 printing, but they are not traditional lc's and are the 11x14 litho
styles commonly used for international distribution

It is possible the one sheets are 1982 posters with an original production
date on them, however it is also possible that the posters were printed for
an original release and never distriobuted.

I suspect Freeman Fisher may be able to shed some light on the issue, if he
sees this email
