Description: Up for sale is an Original 1970 THE BOYS IN THE BAND 40x60 Movie Poster ~ Rare Size! The poster itself is in poor condition but it will look awesome framed in your theatre room. I supplied numerous pictures so you can be the final judge. Magnets were used hold poster in place to picture and does not affect the condition of the poster. Also shipping costs are more expensive due to the size of the shipping tube combined with the high cost of shipping due to the dimensional weight of the shipping tube itself. Shipping tubes measure 49" x 5" and combined with the poster weighs 3 pounds and tubes themselves wholesale cost is $12 each thus the higher shipping costs. 40" x 60" POSTERSAmazing enough.. 40" x 60" posters measure 40" x 60" and are printed on a very heavy card stock. They were primarily offered for major motion pictures only and were displayed both inside and outside of theatres.40" x 60"’s normally feature the same artwork as the one-sheet. The National Screen Service number is normally found on the side on the poster, as opposed to the lower bottom as is the case with one-sheets. 40" x 60"s were normally shipped in rolled condition to the theatre exchanges.Because of it's size and being on heavy duty card stock, the 40x60 was used several times as a standee. Additional re-enforcement was placed on the back so it could be stood up in the lobby. .HISTORY40" x 60"'s were first used as advertising materials in the 1930's for certain titles only. Their heavy card material made them more durable than paper. They were displayed in theatre lobbies, balconies, and bus, train and subway depots.40" x 60"'s were primarily discontinued in 1984 with the collapse of the NSS distribution system. They are no longer used in today’s movie market.AS A COLLECTIBLE40" x 60"’s were printed in smaller numbers than were other sizes of advertising materials. Due to their beautiful artwork and their limited release, 40" x 60"’s are sought-after by some collectors that like the larger paper. Since these materials were shipped to the exchanges in rolled condition, 40" x 60"’s lose some of their value if they are folded.
