If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this one-sheet has been trimmed and now measures 26 3/4" x 41".

Condition: good to very good. Apparently, the poster originally measured 28" x 42", and someone trimmed it on the left, top, and right sides, no doubt to fit in a frame, but only blank white paper was trimmed off. There is a tape repair on the back of the top crossfold.
