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

Condition: good to very good. The poster has tiny separation at the middle crossfold and tiny paper loss at the bottom crossfold. There is semi-circular paper loss in the middle of the bottom blank border and in the middle of the right border, very slightly touching the edge of the image. There is a semi-circular tear with small paper loss right next to that paper loss, and some pinholes and tiny tears around the edges of the poster. There is a stamp that was folded over the right of the top blank border and attached there, and it seems that a very tiny bit of the top border was neatly trimmed off. There are some creases scattered throughout the poster and diagonal creases to the left and right of the bottom quarter of the vertical fold. This is the sort of poster that responds really well to professional restoration. It is likely that much or all of the creases will be removed simply through backing the poster, and after touch up of the above tiny areas of paper loss, the poster will look fantastic (and the poster will only need very slight paint restoration).
