Outland Appraisal

Outland VHS Tape

This item is a VHS video cassette in its original cardboard slipcover featuring the film "Outland" starring Sean Connery. The slipcover features dark colors, primarily black, with a central image of Sean Connery from the chest up, holding a rifle across his body. He is depicted wearing a light-colored, possibly blue or grey, button-up shirt with some sort of badge or emblem on his left breast pocket area. Above his image, in white capitalized letters, is "SEAN CONNERY." Below the image, the title "OUTLAND" is prominently displayed in large, metallic-looking block letters, with a glowing red effect emanating from the 'L' in the title. Below the title, the tagline reads "ON JUPITER'S MOON HE'S THE ONLY LAW." The slipcover shows visible signs of wear and age. The top and bottom edges, particularly the corners, exhibit fraying, creasing, and minor tears, indicating handling and storage over time. The bottom left corner of the slipcover appears to be slightly crushed or deteriorated, with some of the cardboard layers separating. The overall color saturation of the print seems to be in good condition, though the dark background could easily hide minor scuffs or scratches. The plastic wrapping seen around parts of the item in the background suggests it might be stored within a larger collection or protective packaging, but the VHS itself is not sealed. This item belongs to the period when VHS was the dominant home video format, likely from the 1980s or early 1990s, given the film's release year of 1981 and Connery's appearance.
