Note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: This six-sheet was printed in 6 sections and it is folded. Condition: very good to fine. The poster has creases and tiny tears along many foldlines. There is some tiny paper loss at some crossfolds and some extremely tiny paper loss on small parts of some foldlines (mostly in the part of the poster that was on the outside when the poster was fully folded, which is the small piece in the top left corner of the image). The poster is in much better condition than the above makes it sounds! It is virtually entirely "all there", and it really has survived the past almost 90 years in about as good condition as one could possibly imagine! After a simple linenbacking by any talented professional, this magnificent poster will look incredible, and there will truly be virtually no restoration anywhere on the poster! There is a good chance that this poster was never used, or was only used one time. The poster has survived in nice condition, but has a few VERY minor imperfections, typical of this type of poster, and typical of the defects caused by handling the posters, and the aging of the paper over many years. We may have written just a few words about those imperfections, but we may not have, as they are very minor. You should look at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster, which will confirm just how few defects this poster has! Learn More about condition grades
