Note that Ray Harryhausen was sadly not given any credit on the posters for this movie, likely because he was unknown at this time, but Willis O'Brien was credited, no doubt in the hopes that people would remember him from King Kong!

The poster had small paper loss and some tears on the folds, with some paper loss in two borders and the entire poster had darkened. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above. Any talented restorer could perform the needed restoration without re-backing the poster, or of course, it could be displayed as it is. Learn More about condition grades
