Those images aren't factory posters, although some eBay sellers try to seperate them and sell them as such. Those images are instead the pages from the 1993 factory calendar.
As noted above, its impossible to assess value on unseen posters.
FWIW, I tend to doubt its one of the little set of 5 Strenger repops that were issued in a set of 500 in the early '90's.
While someone may be asking $500 for a complete set of one of those 500, that seems quite high for what they actually are: small format reproductions whose only added value is in Strenger's signature. The complete set is worth much less than single copies of most of the large format orginals they copy.
As they were sold through the then Porsche Boutique accessories line, the small Strenger repop sets that I've seen had a "BOU" part number:
The glory days of factory posters was pretty much over by 86/87 after Strenger retired, and factory posters after that date are usually fairly inexpensive.
Good luck should you ever decide to look at what you have.
