Kirby, That's a *very* interesting theory that I didn't think of! With all the permutations of the title I could easily imagine it evolving from the poster like that. I was trying to visualize what could've been on the upper panel, what with all the delightful business on the bottom. Makes me wish I would've tried a little harder. A pox on this accurs-ed, money sucking holiday! Should've saved more dosh for reefer. --Peter

I think the poster may have been rarer than even this result would indicate. Nevertheless, a very good performance for what is, after all, a fragment on ebay. Anyone want to venture what a complete original three sheet for this film would be worth? I think maybe $4 to $5 thousand.

I have no doubt though that this was from it's first release as "Reefer Madness" though, as it reflects some of the artwork from a WC Bruce sold some time ago for "The Burning Question." This would seem to indicate it was still with its original distributor for this release and not the fly-by-night hucksters from later in it's life. Congratulations to both you and the lucky bastid who won it. --Peter channinglylethomson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: In any case, the title on the poster is REEFER MADNESS which was the original release title and not one of several differing re-release titles.
