Important Added Info: Note that these posters were folded at one time but have been laying flat for a long time and they will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. The photobustas have pinholes around the edges and were folded down the middle. The one with the stars standing in front of the Alamo has darkened, except in the left and top, where those areas were folded back and stapled (so that one photobusta is only in "good" condition, but the others are in "very good" condition).
