Girard NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. 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: good to very good. There are smudges, scuff marks, and minor creases throughout the poster (more so around the edges). There are a few enlarged tack holes scattered throughout the poster and there are some 1 1/4" and smaller tears and areas of tattering around the edges (some repaired with tape from the back).
