Hi there,
I've had this VHS in my attic for a few years. I picked it up in a car boot sale in Northern Ireland. The box is a damaged and the tape itself looks like there is some white mold or something on it. I've not tried playing it yet but have a VHS player I could try using it on.
I've looked online a lot over the last few years to try and find a copy that looks like it but the cover seems quite unique. Maybe it was a Republic of Ireland copy or a rental copy?
I would be very grateful if anyone has any information on it? Does the mold mean it's likely to be unwatchable and not be worth very much? I understand it's not a toy so maybe not appealing to most collectors but thought it might be very rare and that could make it interesting and valuable to the right person.
Any information would be very gratefully received.
Thanks
Jonny

It still looks very good for a pirate copy IMO though, it wasn't as easy to produce print like that back in the 80's and it all looks vintage to me so some considerable effort/money went into creating it. But then there was really good money to be made from bootleg videos back in the day!
