Important Added Info: Note that this six-sheet was mounted on to a thin linen backing sometime soon after it was printed, and metal grommets were inserted into the corners (to allow the poster to be hung, and to keep it from falling apart as it moved from theater to theater). Over the years, the poster has suffered paper loss around all the borders, and also along most foldlines (but of course, a talented professional could remove this poster from its thin linen backing, properly linenback it, and after expert restoration, this great poster would look fantastic!). Condition: good. Learn More about condition grades
