Our expert's notes

One-Sheet (27" x 41") ; Birthday Cake Style
Very Fine Rolled
20th Century Fox, R-1985

While this 10th Anniversary Cake poster for the famed cult musical midnight hit The Rocky Horror Picture Show starring Tim Curry as Dr. Frank-N-Furter is equally as odd and quirky as the film itself, it's not the end of the strange story surrounding this one-sheet. Rumors were that the poster was recalled because Mattel was upset and threatened to sue for unauthorized use of its Barbie dolls seen here-a controversial poster for a controversial film.

This rolled poster has slight warping, wrinkling, and crimping on the upper area. Otherwise, the poster is in excellent condition.

Writer and actor Richard O'Brien's luridly entertaining celebration of sci-fi and horror B-movies, based on his own stage musical. The film, starring Tim Curry as Dr. Frank-N-Furter and Susan Sarandon as the naive Janet, is a cult phenomenon, still screened for cos-playing fans the world over.

Estimate: $400 - 800
