NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Gosta Aberg Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned one in all our years of auctioning and that was 20 years ago! Condition: fair to good. The poster was placed on to a thin linen backing shortly after being printed and it had small tears and some tiny paper loss in the right border. The purpose was to reinforce the poster, so that it would survive, when it was passed from theater to theater, and when it was put up on walls and taken down. Unfortunately the person who mounted it to linen did not do a good job and there are creases scattered throughout the poster where it was not mounted properly. This poster can be professionally removed from the original linen and placed on to a proper linen backing, and it will look great, but bear in mind all of this before bidding.
