Artist: Saul Bass
Important Added Info: Note that this poster was printed in the United States for use at theaters with Spanish speaking audiences.

Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had very minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were well restored, OR it had some minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!).

Poster had a small hole at the bottom crossfold and minor smudges and creases throughout, as well as some scuffs on some foldlines. There were border defects, and there was small paper loss in the bottom left corner of the image in the green background. The poster is well linenbacked but the person who did so pretty much just mounted the poster and left the minor defects alone. They are not very noticeable or distracting, but if they bothered the new owner of the poster, a talented restorer could touch them up without rebacking the poster.
