Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good to very good. The poster has some fold and border wear and a few creases around the edges. There is some slight discoloration along portions of the lower edge (see our image). It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and after a simple linenbacking the poster will look great!
