If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been personally autographed (signed) by Roger Corman! Our consignor is a longtime collector who purchased this signed item from a reputable dealer. He does not have a certificate of authenticity, but we believe the signature to likely be authentic. Also note that this wonderful art is often attributed to Albert Kallis but we cannot be 100% certain, and we have seen many cases where "everybody" agreed that someone did a specific poster, and it turned out later that "everybody" was wrong! If anyone has definitive evidence as to who created the art, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Finally, note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thicker paper backing, it CAN'T be sent rolled (someone could conceivably roll it or try to do so, but we know it would definitely lessen its condition, so we will only send it in a very large flat package). What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had its borders trimmed off, and the person who paperbacked it used blank borders from a different 1957 poster, but the information at the bottom is not correct to this poster. It had restoration performed, mostly in the horizontal fold. Sadly, after it was backed, it was displayed and the colors faded considerably, exposing the restoration paint at middle left and right and also in the vertical fold, and also the poster acquired surface paper loss scattered in the top. This poster has very considerable defects, so bear all of the above in mind before bidding on it. Learn More about condition grades
