I am looking to trade for an Octopussy poster. I would like to display the poster and It can be a folded version.

I know that typically the posters will measure 27 x 41. I am looking for the action US version poster as seen below.

 

If there is a good place to get a reprint in the same size, please let me know as well. Thanks!!!

Octopussy mat'l isn't that rare or terribly valuable [yet] so you should be able to find an original without much trouble.

 

If you don't mind a reprint, then AllPosters.com is good; they offer just about every title in every format.

Thanks for the tip! The cheapest authentic one on Ebay currently is $20 + $6 shipping. The frame I have is 27 x 40 so I would have to cut it to display. So.. I may just get the 24 x 36 reprint, which means I'll have to buy a frame..

About 1985, posters shifted from 27x41 to 27x40. The taller frames are still available but harder and harder to find.
