Artist: Thomas Hart Benton Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 insert posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 insert posters (note that most post-1970 inserts were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those inserts). Condition: good. The poster has darkened. There are pinholes, tears and some tiny paper loss around the edges. On the plus side, it has never been folded, and after restoration, it will look great!
