Artist: Reynold Brown Important Added Info: Note that we have only auctioned three examples of this rare poster in all our years of auctioning, but two of them (auctioned in 2012 and again in 2017) were reconsigned to us for those auctions, and the poster has now been reconsigned again to us for this auction, so it is still only the second actual example we have auctioned! Condition: very good. The poster has some creases and scuffs scattered in the image, but not nearly as many as most 40x60s of this era. There is a small number of smudges, creases, and small tears in the borders and some smudges scattered in the image, more so in the solid background areas. Overall, the poster has survived far better than most 40x60s from the 1950s. There is a label attached to the back of the bottom left corner of the poster, but we assume that it is made of a material that will not harm the poster in any way, because it is from "mpgrading.com", which grades the poster at "very fine -".
