Important Added Info: UPDATED 08/24/2017: Note that, while some sections of the auction originally mentioned that this poster was machine-folded, it is not! Also, note that we have added to the Condition Description (see below) but the Condition Grade remains the same. Condition: good. The poster was never folded. It has some creases, stains and smudges around the edges. It has many creases and scuffs scattered in the black background areas, and a few affect Gavin's figure at lower left, but otherwise they don't affect the other three star's images. There is a stain and tiny surface paper loss in the lower left corner that go into Gavin's arm, and surface paper loss in the bottom of the garment Leigh is holding, and the poster was partially hand-folded in a slight diagonal down the middle of the poster but it is not very noticeable from the front (see our image). Certainly this poster can be paperbacked and restored, and most of the restoration will be in the background and border areas. Learn More about condition grades
