Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster! We have never auctioned ANY movie paper for this title in all our years of auctioning. Condition: fair to good. The poster was exposed to moisture which has caused portions of the folds and vertical foldline to stain and "soften" and there are areas of separation along portions of the folds and crossfolds that make the poster fragile and somewhat difficult to handle. The rare poster is in urgent need of preservation and restoration, and certainly a competent restorer could repair the defects described above, but please bear in mind the cost of restoration before placing a bid.
