Good sure. Classic, definately. Greatest? Hm. Potentially. I may have to look through the files for my own best movie poster pick to see whether Star Wars or Indiana Jones reign supreme.
Also, I was originally going to say that the poster for Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom was the greatest but comparing the two, the Indy poster is a simpler, moodier piece while this Star Wars poster crackles with raw power.
Kal, mine is a well loved poster that hung with tacks in my room for years as a kid. We found it in the attic of my parents house before they moved. The framers managed to hide the tack holes with the matting and frame.
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

I have it framed in my basement. Original from 1977.
Best poster for best movie! It´s an interesting illustration since it shows pre-production art.
That is sweet, Wayne. I wish I still had the one that hung in my room. I just love that poster.
I still have mine from May, 1977, NEVER hung. Been rolled up pristine all these years. I should have bought two of 'em..
My Dad bought me mine mere minutes before we first saw it together.
I'd also say it was THE GREATEST..
Alright I looked over what I consider to be movie poster greats and I concede to your point, this is indeed the greatest.
Holy crap. I should mark this day in my calendar. Agreement from Erik and no argument to be had to the contrary. Are you ill, my brother.
No, get tired.
