Artist: Rolf Goetze Important Added Info: This German poster measures 23 1/2" x 33" and is linenbacked. Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had very minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were extremely well restored, OR it had some minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. 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 wear along the foldlines and multiple pinholes in the corners. There was a tape stain in the bottom center of the image and the title was written on the back across the bottom right of the image in red marker, and that slightly bleeds through to the front. The bleed through is most noticeable in Parker's arm. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept the above defects, or are willing to pay to have the poster further restored!
