Artist: Tomi Ungerer
Important Added Info: Note that there are two slightly different posters for this classic movie. One has a reddish color for the top title and credits area, and the other has a "neon orange" color in that same area. We know there were two different kinds of one-sheets for this movie because there are some with one litho number and some with another, and yet it does not correlate to the two different colors described above! So we are very confused. The one with the orange color looks like it could be intended to be day-glo. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

Condition: good to very good. The poster had paper loss at each crossfold and in the top of the vertical foldline. There were some creases, scuffs, and small tears on parts of the foldlines. There were pinholes around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Note that the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster.
