If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that when this movie opened in Italy, the producers wisely wanted to capitalize on Michael Jackson's immense popularity as a pop performer at the time, and they created a poster with his name, great art of him performing at a concert, and they re-titled the movie "I'm Magic". I wonder how many people went to see the movie in Italy at that time and were amazed to discover what was actually showing! Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
