If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good to very good. The poster had a large Canadian censor stamp in the hand of Richard Conte at bottom center. It had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some separation and tiny paper loss on the vertical foldline, with minor wear on the other foldlines. There were pinholes and smudges around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty backed, but the restorer did not paint over the Canadian censor stamp (a talented restorer could paint over that area without re-backing the poster, but it could not be removed). Note that the restorer left a tiny bit of excess linen around all four sides of the poster (they left a small border in order to protect the poster from handling damage, but they did not leave a larger border to allow it to more easily fit in a frame).
