Poster collectors: what's the value of this poster?

This is a teaser poster that is in mint condition and has lived in a professionally done frame for more than a decade (nearly since it was acquired). I've not seen it's like since.

10- 80 dollars...

I appreciate the eBay search, but none of those are teaser posters.

I gotta say that's a real poser. Never seen it before, not a hint of it anywhere I can find. Any other info? Is it regular poster size? Any thing on the artist? Can you transcribe the text on it? Don't think I can help but with more data maybe somebody else can.

Couldn't hurt to check with this guy. One other interesting appraisal link. Sorry if I'm just rehashing searching you've already done. Please follow up if you find any interesting info, I'm just surprised at how not-anywhere-to-be-found that thing is!

No hits when I try TinEye.

You may have a nearly unique item that is difficult to price.

I'll post measurements and transcribe the text (it's at work, I'm at home).

Rudy at Posterappraisal.com is my father....I showed him the pic...assuming the size marks it as a movie poster and not a print from someplace he says $200-$300

Holy crap. Thanks, legotech.
I've posted the full text of the poster in the flickr description.
It is definitely a movie poster, not a print.
