Friday the 13th Part 2 VHS 1988 - CGC Home Video 9.8 and Seal A++, Slipcase, Vertical Overlap Seal, Side White Paramount Home Video Watermarks, The Motor City Collection, Paramount Home Video. Friday the 13th Part 2 returns to the blood-soaked grounds of Camp Crystal Lake, where a new group of counselors becomes the target of a relentless killer. This time, the iconic hockey-masked Jason Voorhees takes up the mantle of terror. Released in 1981, the film was met with mixed reviews, but it struck a chord with fans of the first installment who appreciated the heightened suspense, creative kills, and the evolution of Jason as a terrifying antagonist. Part 2 solidified Jason's status as a horror icon, and it remains a beloved sequel among fans of the franchise for its contribution to the legacy of campy and gruesome slasher horror.This 1988-dated copy of Friday the 13th Part 2 with later production side watermarks comes after the initial Paramount gatefold release and the 1983 slipcase version of the film. It comes to us as part of The Motor City Collection, CGC Home Video's first Pedigree. The Motor City Collection is especially remarkable due to the fact that original purchaser would typically write the date that the item was purchased on the price tag, sometimes along with the store name or the street that the store was located on. Based on the handwritten notes on the price tag, this tape was originally purchased on 9-30-88 at a Meijer location in Michigan. It has received a high grade of 9.8 by CGC, with a perfect Seal grade of A++.
The Motor City Collection is CGC Home Video's first VHS pedigree. The gentleman who originally assembled this unbelievable collection had purchased items as far back as the 1970s beginning with vinyl records. He would typically go out of his way to write the date of purchase on the price tags, as well as other identifiable info like a city, street, or store name. His collection was unknown to even his family until his passing. The majority of the items he'd purchased remained unopened in their original factory shrink wrap.
