If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that there is an oddity to the first release one-sheet for this movie. There are two versions of it that are exactly the same in every respect, EXCEPT that one version has a light blue background and the other has a black background. Over the years, we have auctioned far more of the blue background one-sheets than the black background ones. That would lead us to guess that it was originally printed with a black background and that someone at the studio decided to change it, but that some of the black ones were used. But it is also just as possible that the first printing was the blue one-sheets, and that the movie was successful enough to require additional one-sheets, so they printed some new ones and changed the background, but they printed less because it was nearing the end of its run. No one seems to know if one poster predates the other. The black background version has sold for higher dollars than the blue, but that might solely be because of its greater rarity. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

Condition: good to very good. The poster has pinholes around the edges with small blank paper loss in the upper corners due to rough removal. There are creases and faint smudges scattered in various areas as well as a few tiny pinholes. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and after a simple linenbacking the poster will look great!
