I have sold one other example of this poster in the past 18 years of selling movie posters full time! Condition: very good to fine. The poster had creases across the center fold and a lesser number of creases on the other two folds. There were some scuffs in the solid blue background areas. There were pinholes in the corners and some tiny tears in the edges of the blank borders. There were a very few faint creases scattered through the poster. The owner of this poster had it linenbacked many years ago by Igor Edelman, and his main purpose was preservation, for there was really next-to-nothing wrong with the poster! Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, with no excess linen around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
