If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is a very rare uncut printer's test! Before a poster was printed in large quantities, the printer would print a limited number of posters as "test" posters. Commonly, they would leave the color chart on the left edge of the poster, which added an extra inch to the width of the poster (which would explain why most of these posters measure 28" x 41", but this particular poster has all of the color bars on the right side, which causes it to measure 30 3/4" x 41"). These printer's tests would then be shown to the various people in a position to "OK" them, and once they were completely approved, the printer would print the full print run of the posters. Not only is a printer's test far more rare than a regular poster, but it is also 100% genuine, there is no fear of purchasing a reproduction! Condition: good. There are creases throughout the poster from it being roughly handled at one time and there is marker writing on the back that very slightly bleeds through to the front at upper left.
