Artist: Ken Sawyer Important Added Info: Note that this poster was machine folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. There was a 7" jagged tear in the left of the bottom border (extending through the credits and into the bottom of the image) and it was repaired with paper tape from the back. There was a long piece of paper tape on the back of the bottom left that was not put there for a restoration purpose, and a similar piece on the back of the top left, but that piece of tape is long gone. There is a faint diagonal line of scuffing that is between 1" and 2" wide in the bottom left of the image, extending through the Capitol Building. There are pinholes, smudges, faint stains, creases, and some small tears around the edges of the poster. While the poster has the above defects, it is also true that they are not serious, and after a simple paperbacking by a talented professional, the poster will look great!
