Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections that were glued together. Condition: poor to fair. The theater that used this poster apparently wanted to make it fit into a 40x60 frame, so they trimmed off all the bottom credits area and the top border. They also glued the pieces together before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used posters in multiple pieces). Learn More about condition grades
