Fine to Very Fine Original Movie Poster. Grading Guide MINT / C-10: This grade allows zero tolerance for flaws, and it's one that we rarely use. Occasionally, a brand new rolled poster can justify this grade, but only if it is truly flawless, has absolutely no signs of handling, no hints of edge wear and no fingerprints visible on the surface. The same can be true for a lobby card if it is found in truly pristine state, with zero signs of use, crisp edge and sharp points to the corners. Again, we rarely use this grade. The criteria for rolled posters is even stricter. Over the years, we've been fortunate to acquire posters for some new releases directly from the distributor, in boxes of 25 or 50. In these cases, the posters truly qualify for a Near Mint or Mint grading. But once a rolled poster is handled - or mishandled - in any way, the high grading no longer applies. Rolled posters are susceptible to numerous minor flaws (the majority of which result from either improper storage or shoddy shipping practices). For example, a high-gloss poster like Spiderman [insert other example and image] can be downgraded simply for having fingerprints in the image. For a rolled poster to qualify as Near Mint or better it cannot have any edge wear, corner dings, undulations, slight bends or rippling. NEAR MINT / C-9: A poster in this grade must be virtually unused, with only the slightest signs of handling. Acceptable flaws might include a single pinhole in each corner (for a total of four), and the slightest imperfections to the edges. VERY FINE / C-8: A poster in this grade can exhibit slight signs of use, but no significant wear. Acceptable flaws might include border pinholes, minor edge dings, light edge creases, and very minor wear along fold lines.

VERY GOOD / C-4 to C-5: A poster that is well used but still presentable. This grade can include a greater abundance of the flaws listed for VERY GOOD - FINE, as well as tears, fold separation, toning (a slight browning caused by oxidation of the paper), minor bleed-thru of writing on the back of the poster. GOOD / C-3: A poster that is heavily used, but would still be reasonably presentable if framed. Posters in this grade can exhibit significant tears, numerous pinholes, significant fold separation, tape on the front (as well as reinforcing tape on the verso), light fading, moderate to heavy soiling, slight trimming. FAIR / C-2: A very heavily used poster. Expect significant damage to the image area that will require restoration. POOR / C-1: The name of this grade speaks for itself.
