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 know it would definitely lessen 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).

Prior to paperbacking, the poster was folded once in each direction and had tiny creases, scuffs, and separation on both foldlines. It had some tears, pinholes, and tiny paper loss around the edges, with smudges in the white borders and in the white background areas. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, and the restorer painted over all of the white areas (not just the borders) to "even them out".
