If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that these are a special group of posters (which we have never seen or auctioned before, but they are certainly really cool!) printed in Italy for use in the U.S. (and likely other countries as well, because they have no writing on the front). Many special color posters were printed in Italy at this time for use in the U.S. and elsewhere, because Italy had the absolute best color printing. There is a stamp that reads "MADE IN ITALY" on the back of one of the borders on each poster. Note: We have 11 images of the special posters in this set, but due to a space limitation, only TEN of the 11 images are displayed above. However, there is a "supersize" link to the right of those images that lets you see the other 1. Condition: very good. The posters were once lightly folded across or down the middle, but they only have a "wave" in that area and not a crease. They have varying amounts of minor border wear, and there is a series of small holes that form numbers (typical of Italian posters of this period) at upper center. The ultra rare posters are otherwise in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
