I CANNOT ACCEPT RUSH ORDERS PLEASE , I AM SORRY. ABOUT THE POSTER PHOTO'S
ONE SHEETS ARE OFTEN - ESPECIALLY FOR MAJOR RELEASES - PRINTED SEVERAL TIMES WITH SMALL DIFFERENCES SOMETIMES BETWEEN PRINT RUNS PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME BAD FEEDBACK IF THESE SMALL DIFFERENCE ARE CRUCIAL TO YOUR PURCHASE. SOME EXAMPLES -A DATE IS CHANGED AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POSTER FOR THE RELEASE OF THE INCREDIBLE HULK BUT THE ONE I SENT WAS THE OLD DATE HE DIDN'T WANT . THE SHERLOCK HOLMES I SENT WASN'T THE ONE THAT HAS HOLMES FOR THE HOLIDAY'S TAG LINE ON IT HE WANTED . I GUARANTEE THE ARTWORK MATCHES THE PHOTO BUT NOT EVERY NUANCE BETWEEN THESE VARIOUS PRINT RUNS THAT THE STUDIO'S PUT OUT - SO THE PHOTO WILL CORRECTLY MATCH THE POSTER'S ARTWORK YOU RECIEVE BUT MAY HAVE A DIFFERENCE IN THE TYPE ON IT.
