Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned one in all our years of auctioning and that was in 2009 (and that same poster has been reconsigned to us for this auction!). Note also that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: fair to good. Some specific theater chose to write the play dates in the red circle at right in marker (and I am certain it cannot be easily removed, and likely only painted over). There is a snipe over the far right white portion of the center of the circle. Learn More about condition grades
