Important Added Info: This three-sheet was printed in 2 sections. Note that the theater that used this poster taped the two pieces together before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used three-sheets). Condition: good. There are tape stains from where the two pieces of the poster were taped together. There is much tape on the back of some foldlines, mending tears and separations. There is paper tape residue on the back of all the borders. Obviously, this poster has significant defects, but they are the sort that respond well to restoration! After linenbacking by a talented restorer, the poster will look great, and there will be little paint restoration anywhere in the image! This poster has some significant imperfections. We may have written a few words about those imperfections, but we may not have, as you can likely see them by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster. It DOES have clear defects, which are likely to be very noticeable in our "large" or "super-sized" images that you can click on from our small image at right (if the item has significant defects that are difficult to see in our image, then we try to describe those in words elsewhere within the auction). Note that some of these posters have tape repairs on the back, and we note more significant repairs, but we do not note just a few small pieces of tape on the back of a poster. PLEASE DO NOT USE WISHFUL THINKING WHEN LOOKING AT THE CONDITION OF THIS POSTER! It DOES have significant defects, and they may be such that you would not be happy with this item. We know that some collectors could accept this item's defects, and display it as is, and we also know that many collectors would only be happy with this poster if they had it restored, so please do not bid on it unless you feel sure you can accept it as it is, or are willing to pay to have it properly restored. Of course, you should realize that if you do not bid on this poster because of its condition defects, it may be quite some time before you see this poster offered again!
