If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare "country of origin" poster for this Australian movie! Note that there are two versions of daybills for this movie. The two look very similar, except one has a mostly purple coloring and the other has a mostly blue coloring. In the past, we have designated them as the "blue style", and the "purple style". We have recently learned that most Australian experts believe that the "purple style" was from the first Australian release in 1979, and that the "blue style" is from the 1982 re-release (and possibly used for the first New Zealand release). There does not seem to be a unanimous opinion on this, but it seems reasonable that this is likely true, so please do not bid on this daybill unless you can accept that it is likely a re-release. Condition: very good. The poster had a 1 1/2" tear near the middle of the right border, pinholes in the corners, and minor fold wear. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
