NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: d'apres J. Benari Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare "pre-War" Belgian poster. Prior to World War II, Belgian posters were much larger than the ones from after the war, and they are extremely rare (because during WWII, there was a massive paper shortage in Belgium, and they took virtually every poster and map, and printed new posters on the backs of them!). Also note that the poster is signed "d'apres J. Benari", which means that the unknown Belgian artist created the poster in the style of the original poster by J. Benari, but that Benari did not actually do this art. Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good to fine. The poster has minor wear on the foldlines. It has some stains in the extreme outer edge of the top and bottom of the right border. There are a few small pieces of white conservation tape on the back of the borders, mending small tears. Learn More about condition grades
