RCA warhol Pig poster questions

My daughter found a large RCA advertising poster from 1968 in her great grandfather's garage. It features a brightly painted pig in a large photo with the following text at the top:
Bank By Andy Warhol. Gaudy Savings by RCA Color Scanner. Pretty as a Pigture, Huh?

I don't see it listed on EBay. Can anyone tell me something about it and perhaps take a stab at value? Condition is good... I'm not a poster collector!

I have one of these posters as well. I got it from a Manhattan printer on West 24th Street in Manhattan, where I had an office, around 1993. Please correspond if you have any more information. Thanks.

Hi,
I actually work for the man who originally printed that poster, so I can tell you pretty much everything you need to know. Depending on condition and whether or not it's mounted, it can be worth anything from $500 to $1500. If it's on board, you're looking in the $500-$800. If it's on linen or just the original paper itself, you're more in the $1000+ range. That said, if it's been hanging out in a garage for a while, I'm assuming it has a bit of damage. Shoot me a line if you have a picture of it--and really, although I cannot buy it (because we own a whole raft of them already, as the original printers), don't undersell it. You're sitting on a little gem.
