Collector dossier - condition and provenance
Why this exact The Princess Academy piece matters
This page is about the actual archive item, not a stock poster image.
Actual item
The Princess Academy is cataloged as a home-video promo connected to Lightning Video.
The page uses the uploaded front photograph and detail crops from that same item.
Campaign role
Many pieces in this archive were made for the 1980s home-video and rental-store economy.
Recorded print details:
Lightning Video promotional poster for The Princess Academy, with availability date printed along the lower edge.
Provenance
Private Discount Video archive, retained from the store for approximately 40 years.
That history does not replace in-hand inspection, but it gives the listing a stronger starting point than anonymous marketplace copy.
