If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: 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 think it would have a strong chance of lessening its condition, so we will only send it in a very large flat package, unless the buyer insists, and then they would be responsible for any damage).

It had some creases and faint smudges in the background areas and some creases, pinholes, and scuffs around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was nicely backed, but the paperbacker did not do any restoration to the defects in the blank borders, likely rightfully assuming they will not show when the poster is framed.
