If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time, but the owner rolled it in a tube many years ago and has stored it that way ever since. This has greatly minimized the original folds, and so it will be sent rolled in a tube, as it would be a shame to re-fold it again.

Condition: very good to fine. There is 2" of separation at the right end of the middle horizontal foldlines. There are several 1" and smaller tears in the borders. There is a tack hole in each corner.
