If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that this is an "international" style one-sheet (meaning it was printed in the U.S. for use in non-U.S. countries). Note the lack of a ratings box and NSS information.

Condition: good to very good. The poster has tiny pinholes around the edges. It has fine surface paper loss along portions of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this time period) and a few light creases. There are light oval-shaped creases along portions of the vertical foldline (see our image) that were caused by the machine folding process itself (so they are not a defect).
