If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this movie was released at the time when NSS was switching from one-sheets with a "flat" finish to ones with a "glossy" finish (this was long overdue, because the posters with a glossy finish picked up smudges and scuffs far less than the flat finish ones did, so it meant the posters could be used and reused far longer). For this movie, posters were created with both a flat AND glossy finish! Some people have speculated that one style was used for domestic theaters and the other for international, or that one was used for major theaters and the other for smaller theaters, or that one was used for regular movie theaters and the other for drive-ins, but I have been consigned both kinds of one-sheet from a single theater, so I think it was just random how they were distributed! The one-sheet in this auction is the one with the "flat" finish. Also note that this poster was tri-folded only (which means there is no vertical machine fold) but because it would be more expensive to send flat, it will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good. There are some light horizontal creases scattered throughout the poster (mostly down the left third of the poster) and there are minor creases and smudges around the edges. There is some scuffing at lower center in the brown background between the title and Blackman's credit. There is a pin hole in the middle of the left and right blank border and in each corner of the poster. There are some 1/2" and smaller tears in the blank borders around the edges of the poster. There is a small area of ink pen writing on the back of the poster at lower right but it does not appear to have any effect on the front. Overall, the poster is in pretty nice condition and it displays well from a short distance away and if one chose to have it restored it would look wonderful! Learn More about condition grades
