Not mine, kind of pricey, not great condition, but pretty hard to find.

I have not seen one of these before.

For factory Mopar dealership wing car posters I have seen 5; this one, a Bobby Isaac poster, 1970 ARCA-Daytona 500-Rockingham, Dealer Gram Superbird, and a Superbird wins Daytona 500-Pete Hamilton.

If it is like the Bobby Isaac Dodge Daytona poster from 1969, which I do have, I would guess it is on really fragile paper with texturing.

The 2 Dodge Posters and the Pete poster are very hard to find.

In spite of the poor condition it is in, it is far from a $5 item IMHO.

$200-250. IMO to an Allison fan, even the way it looks.

I have never seen one...

I'm sure I'm wrong but looking at the edges it look more like a page cut from a paper than an actual poster.....

The size is way to big to be cut from any paper, or newspaper. LEON.

He can keep it. It's not like it's an original copy of the Declaration of Independence.

Right on.    That piece could be sympathetically mounted and framed.    I think it would look pretty decent.      All those dealer posters are super rare.

Tony, I'm glad you got it. It will look good in your collection next to your cars.

It looks like it sold somewhere between $ 370 and $380.

When I saw it, it looked as if the seller knew what they had.

Even with the condition-it looked like it was not going for $100, otherwise I would have bought it, too rich for me.

I have more than a fair amount of original Mopar stuff, but the wing car posters are pretty much unobtanium.

I actually think it was a good buy. To have an original wing car poster next to an original wing car, a lot of people would like that.

The poster is too big for an IKEA frame, so unless one can find a used or off brand frame the whole deal is a $450-$500 undertaking.

There also was a Bobby Allison Atlanta 500 Daytona Newspaper ad that used a different picture of the car. I've seen it in a 12x18 inch size. Those are about a $15 item.

I had that exact reply typed out the other day, and at the moment, I decided, "ah, why bother?"     But since you've said it, I will add that we all have different hot buttons.      Some folks will pay MORE for real DOH TV memorabilia, or some rusty bent part that was on a jump car.   On one of the Facebook Mopar diecast boards, I see newly manufactured collectible "chase" 1/64 cars being offered for more than $100.     Personally, those examples are just not my thing.   But I'm fine with it if it's yours.  

As others have mentioned, I've never seen the full size Allison poster.   I've only seen a PHOTO of the Isaac poster.    Who knows how different ones there were?   They were disposable and not meant to last any longer than the time spent on display.

Here's the corresponding Spoiler II poster from the previous year Atlanta 500.  Not in the best shape.    But go find another.    No doubt it would be valued similarly to the Dodge poster to the right guy.
