If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this French poster measures 23 3/4" x 31" and is linenbacked. Condition: good. This poster was linenbacked, but it was either NOT linenbacked by a very talented restorer, OR it was linenbacked many years ago, and has received rough handling over the years, OR it had fairly significant defects that were not restored at all. If it was restored, you can clearly see signs of the restoration even from a distance. This is a poster that would surely benefit from additional professional restoration. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster had creases, smudges, scuffs, and small paper loss across both foldlines. There were tears and scuff lines to the left of the vertical foldline near the center of the image, and in the top credits area. The person who backed the poster pretty much just backed it as is. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its defects, or are willing to have further restoration done to the poster! Learn More about condition grades
