If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this one-sheet! It is a "special" one-sheet that was designed to be hung in stores that sold magic tricks, as a promotional tie-in to this movie. It has lots of taglines explaining this ("Magic is more fun than ever"; "See the greatest magician of all time"; "See Houdini perform death-defying deeds of skill and daring"; "Inspect our complete stock of magic tricks. You, too, can amaze and thrill your friends"). We can't imagine that very many of these posters were made, and surely very few survive! Condition: very good to fine. The poster has a few faint scuffs on parts of the folds, where there is a solid white area, surely a minor printing defect. It has very slight darkening in the outer edges of the blank borders. It has tiny separation at the top crossfold. It has a few creases in the borders. Other than the above, the poster is in really nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
