CARRIE Daybill Movie Poster Original or Reissue?

Carrie was released in 1976. The M.A.P.S daybill on the left carries the United Artists logo and is the original release daybill. The Robert Burton printed daybill on the right carries the "Distributed by United International Pictures" notation.   

 

In 1981, MGM merged with United Artists. They still had their own international distribution arm. The new company was reorganised to become United International Pictures. This indicates that the Robert Burton printed Carrie daybill was probably printed around or soon after 1981 to coincide with the change of distribution details.
