LOS ANGELES TIMES, July 12, 1987 (an original vintage newspaper leaf from the Calendar section)  This offering consists of four complete pages (two double-sided sheets on one single leaf), serving as a rare piece of cinematic ephemera, highlighted by an original vintage print advertisement announcing the opening day premiere of  "ROBOCOP" on one of the four pages. (see images).

In addition to the featured movie ad, which captures the era's distinct theatrical promotional graphics and classic key art, the surrounding pages provide a fascinating snapshot of late 20th-century entertainment and pop culture. Printed on authentic newsprint with genuine vintage toning, this original leaf is not a modern reprint, making it an ideal piece for custom framing, film history display, or inclusion in a dedicated cinema memorabilia collection.

Background: Paul Verhoeven’s RoboCop (1987) stands out for its unique blend of ultraviolent action, dark satire, and practical special effects, while its original screen-used props represent some of the most sought-after and exceptionally rare holy grails in sci-fi movie collecting. Content-wise, the film excels through its razor-sharp parody of 1980s corporate greed and media saturation—punctuated by fake news broadcasts and hyper-capitalist TV ads—alongside groundbreaking creature and suit design, including Rob Bottin’s iconic metallic, fiberglass suit and Phil Tippett’s stop-motion ED-209 enforcement droid. Regarding rarity, original production artifacts are notoriously scarce; because the heavy, restrictive hero suits were subjected to intense wear, battle-damage effects, and sequential modifications across sequels, complete screen-used suits worn by Peter Weller almost never surface intact, driving individual pieces—such as original helmet castings, prosthetics, or screen-used modified Beretta 93R "Auto 9" prop guns—to command premium prices at major auction houses.
