If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Condition: good to very good. The poster had pinholes, creases, smudges, stains, tears, and some paper loss around the edges of the poster, and some around the edges of the image. There was a vertical tear running from the "A" of "CANTOR" down into the left side of Cantor's face, and some smudges in Cantor's face. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, because you can see slight signs of the restoration of the above defects, but from a reasonable viewing distance, they are not very distracting, and the poster does not have a "restored" look.
