If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have not auctioned an example of this poster in the last 10 years! Also note that we have been told that the artist behind this poster is likely Mario Zamparelli, who created many posters for RKO in the 1950s. However, while the poster resembles his style, we cannot be certain. If anyone has definitive proof of who the artist is, please e-mail us. Condition: very good. The vertical foldline of the poster is slightly uneven, and there is some tiny paper loss at the upper crossfold with a few small creases extending from the bottom (slightly visible in Russell's chin) and years ago a collector put a piece of clear tape on back of that area. There is a small tear at upper right in the blank border and it is next to a small area of slight discoloration due to some paint on the back of that area (but those are not very noticeable or distracting as they are restricted to that blank area). It is otherwise in very nice condition and it will display well on its new owner's wall! Learn More about condition grades
