If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this Belgian poster measures 23 1/4" x 33 1/4" and is linenbacked. Condition: good. The poster had a 2" x 4" piece cut out of the lower right corner, and whoever had it linenbacked chose not to have it restored. A talented restorer could surely replace the missing area, but I don't know how difficult or expensive that would be. Other than the missing area, the poster had small paper loss in the top right blank corner, tiny holes at the crossfolds, and minor wear on the borders. The entire poster has darkened somewhat.
