If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this movie was originally in 3-D. The studios created both 3D posters and 2D posters (the 2-D posters were for theaters that lacked the 3-D equipment). This poster is from the "3-D" release. Note that this poster has been paperbacked, but not in the usual way (which is an alternate form of restoration that is similar to linenbacking, but involves backing the poster onto Japanese rice paper). THIS poster HAS been mounted onto Japanese rice paper, but it appears that it was done so in preparation to having the poster paperbacked, but that (for unknown reasons) the owner of this poster did not have the job finished, so the poster has solely been mounted on thin Japanese rice paper. There also has been no restoration done to the poster (it would have been done after the poster and paper were mounted on paper). Any talented restorer could certainly go ahead and paperback this poster (either using the current rice paper, or re-backing the poster onto different rice paper first), and after proper paperbacking and restoration to the poster's defects, it will look great! Please do not bid on this poster unless you have read the above carefully! Condition: good. The poster had a large snipe over the "3 DIMENSION" area at top, and when it was removed, it caused surface paper loss in the blue background around that area. There were also smudges, stains, and surface paper loss down the left and right sides of the poster and some smudges, faint stains, and scuffs scattered throughout the image. Someone had a restorer mount it onto thin Japanese rice paper (perhaps in preparation for paperbacking it; see above), but they did not perform any restoration. Learn More about condition grades
