If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned in all our years of auctioning and the last time was in 2011 and it sold for $341!

Condition: good. The poster has tiny brown dot stains scattered in various areas due to exposure to moisture, but there are also some larger patches of slight discoloration at lower right. It has creases along the folds and pinholes around the edges and in a few portions of the edges. Someone repaired several of the defects with white tape from the back, and there are also a few small pieces of white tape on front of the corners (they were not put there for any restoration purpose). The very rare poster is otherwise "all there" and after linenbacking with some proper restoration the poster will display well, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it.
