If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: This six-sheet was printed in 4 sections. Condition: very good to fine. the poster appears to have never been used; there is separation and tiny paper loss at some crossfolds and creases and tiny tears on many foldlines (mostly in the two larger sections), and some creases and small tears on the edges of some of the borders. There are a few tiny pinholes in the borders of some sections. Overall, it has probably survived in as good condition as could be expected, considering it is nearly 50 years old! The colors are bright and vibrant, the paper has a crisp, unused feel, and the poster is completely unrestored (there is not a piece of tape anywhere on it)! Learn More about condition grades
