If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned two in all our years of auctioning and the last time was in 2013! Note also that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets).

Condition: very good. The poster was never folded. It has creases and faint smudges around the edges. There is a few fine creases in portions of the image (one is in Taylor's image at left) but they are not very noticeable or distracting when the poster is displayed and otherwise it is in pretty nice condition!
