You will love this particular Portal. I have a minty one framed and enjoy seeing it every day as there is no way in hell I could ever afford the real one sheet. I purchased it on Ebay about 6 years ago and actually had to fight a bit to get it. It's the only repro I own, as it is IMHO one of the top 5 poster designs in history. And yes the printing is pretty great certainly better than the smaller versions on Moviegoods. freeman fisher
