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 light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. Condition: very good. The poster had creases, small tears, and some nail holes around the edges of the card and there was a V-shaped tear near the center of the card (in the top of Damita's hand, extending into the background above. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and while you can see signs of the restoration from very close up, from any reasonable viewing distance, the card looks great! Learn More about condition grades
