Need Help IDing An Item...

[mhadley]

I need help with something. I have this Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2 plastic "3d" poster from 1986 (or 1987) that I need some info on if anyone knows. I say "3d" because the face and saw are raised above the rest of the item.

I can't find this on ebay, or even on google. It's an ad for the video release of the movie (pictured in the link, the coke bottle in the picture is for scale) http://rarevideosfortrade.com/TCMPART2.jpg

I am curious as to if it's worth anything and/or if anyone would be intersted in it. Honestly I am not even sure how I got this, I just found it in my basement last week. My uncle used to run a video store in the 80's and I assume he must have given this to me and I forgot about it (hell, I still have hundreds of old beta tapes from that store). Anyone have an idea about this? Thanks for any help.

I am sure it is worth something to a collector - I am a huge horror film collector and I know that memorabilia like that is definitely worth money to someone.

You should go onto this website - www.halloweenmovies.com - it is mainly a forum for the Halloween series of movies but there is a section on the forums for Memorabilia for sale and people discuss all types of horror memorabilia on there. You might even find a good buyer for the item (which looks to me like a video store promo item that was probably only available to video stores when the movie was coming out (a movie, which, by the way, was horrible - they should have stopped at part one). I have a similar item I got from a video store that was going out of business - a huge hanging "Clueless" promo that looks like a mirror and has the three lead actresses as if they are reflected while "looking" into the mirror...those rare items are very cool...
