Meet 9 o'clock, sixty paces west of Battersea Bridge. Will wear red carnation."; "Don't answer this ad...

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been machine folded! Most half-sheet posters were folded once horizontally and once vertically right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded example of most half-sheets, especially from before 1970! UPDATED 12/17/2010: We have added more detail to the Overall Condition field. Condition: good. The poster has had professional restoration. There was paper loss in the bottom right corner and there were several smaller tears around the edges of the poster. A restorer pressed and flattened the poster, replaced the paper loss in the bottom right corner and the tears were repaired, but the restorer did not address the smudges and scuffs scattered throughout the poster (mostly around the edges). Overall the poster was pretty well restored (in a "minimalist" fashion) and will display nicely! Learn More about condition grades
