Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good. The poster was folded once in each direction and there are creases along both folds. There are creases and tears around the edges and someone put tape on the back of tears and also on the back of the bottom 2" of the vertical fold, where there was separation. There is tiny paper loss in the lower left blank border. The poster can be displayed and enjoyed as it is, or certainly, restoration could be performed. Either way, the new owner of this poster will have a wonderful and rare poster from a wonderful movie to display on their wall! Learn More about condition grades
