Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: fair to good. The poster has many smudges, tears, creases and pinholes around the edges with two small areas of paper loss in the left blank border. There are two long scuff marks to the left of Granger's face in the center of the poster that slightly affect the title and are in the orange background below it and entering the tagline. There are some other faint smudges and scuffs scattered in the image. The poster has real defects, but it is an excellent candidate for restoration, and after paperbacking by a talented restorer it will look great. Learn More about condition grades
