I imagine it's something like this one, but details are needed to know if it's a reprint or an original. Condition is also a factor.

dave83,

If it's in good shape, then $7 is a steal. Typically, these posters promoted the exhibit dates and location at the bottom under the image.

This is one of my favorite posters. It's framed in our office. Something about Kermit and Yorick together that makes it so right.
