MGM/UA Home Video in the Discount Video archive

The archive currently holds 11 pieces from MGM/UA Home Video, dated between 1986 and 1989. Prices run from $40 to $775, with a median of $100. Every one is a physical piece kept from the family’s Discount Video store, photographed as it is today.

MGM/UA Home Video carried the combined MGM and United Artists libraries, which means its video-store paper spans both new releases and deep-catalogue reissues from two studios.

Strongest pieces here: Not of This Earth - Traci Lords video-release one-sheet ($775), Road House — video-release promotional poster ($225), Spaceballs — MGM original one-sheet poster ($175).

How to read this MGM/UA Home Video group

This page helps you compare actual Discount Video poster archive pieces by title, format, studio, year, and condition.

Why it matters

These pieces were retail tools.

They helped rental stores announce cassette releases, support price points, call attention to studio labels, and make titles recognizable across the room.

Studio and year signals

This group includes MGM/UA Home Video pieces from years including 1980s, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989.

Those details help separate original 1980s campaign material from later nostalgia prints.

Condition first

  • Fold lines and edge wear stay visible.
  • Glare, sleeve reflections, wrinkles, and display marks are treated as buying facts.
  • Listing pages place condition before checkout.

Pricing basis

Prices are selling asks based on owner instructions, internet comparable research where available, title demand, format, visible condition, and Discount Video provenance.

They are not formal appraisals.
