If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been paperbacked. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thicker paper backing, it CAN'T be sent rolled (someone could conceivably roll it or try to do so, but we think it would almost certainly damage it, so we will only send it in a large flat package, unless the buyer insists, and then they would be responsible for any damage).

The poster originally had a blank top that was partially trimmed off (this is commonly done with Belgian posters, similar to how the blank top is trimmed off of U.S. window cards). Prior to paperbacking, the poster was unfolded and was in nice condition other than the partial top blank border trim. The poster was nicely backed, and the restorer re-created the missing part of the top blank border. Learn More about condition grades
