NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this insert! Also note that this poster could conceivably be rolled in a tube, but because it is old, and valuable, and somewhat fragile, we intend to send it in a large flat package, and will only send it rolled if the new owner accepts responsibility if it is damaged from being rolled. Please bear this in mind before placing your bid on this rare poster. Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has darkening in the upper left blank border, with some small tears in the borders and paper loss in the corners, more so in the bottom left, but it is extremely fortunate that in all four cases only blank area was affected. The poster is fragile, but after a simple paperbacking by a talented professional, it will display incredibly, and will require almost no paint restoration anywhere in the image!
