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: good. Note that this paperbacked window card is made up of two window cards that have been carefully spliced together (one can see the vertical line at left where the pieces join). The restoration was carefully done but it is noticeable as the colors in the two sections are not a perfect match. There are light brown stains throughout the right half of the card and there were some tears and small areas of paper loss around the edges of the cards that have been repaired with paint from the front. Overall, the card displays nicely but the restoration was minimal and the card's defects are noticeable. Learn More about condition grades
