I have the yellow skylark poster but it is not the same as the one above. mine says, “It’s a crime.” Got it from a game store. It was the advertisement for the game in front of the store. Windows 95 PC CD-ROM. It was only in front of the store for about a week before it was pulled. Are there many left like this?
