Description

2001: A Space Odyssey VHS 1980 - IGS Box 8.5 MINT and Seal 8.5 MINT, MGM/UA Home Video Book Box, C-Seal, Hologram Seal, MGM/UA Home Video. Hailed as one of the greatest and most influential science fiction films of all time, Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey was lauded for its accurate depiction of space flight, technology and artificial intelligence. Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and Christopher Nolan have all spoken about the influence Kubrick's film has had on their own careers.

This beautiful 1980 release of Stanley Kubrick's iconic 2001: A Space Odyssey is an amazingly rare find. Factory sealed book box copies of popular films from this early era of VHS are so difficult to find, especially in this condition. This copy has received a matching Box and Seal grade of 8.5 MINT by IGS. There are currently only a couple factory sealed copies of this original MGM release known to exist on VHS, making this a fleeting opportunity to own an original release of this classic film.
