If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is the poster that was printed when the movie first opened at the end of 1966, so that it would qualify for the Academy Awards. After it won the Best Picture Award, all new posters were printed, and the "pre-Academy Awards" one-sheets were discarded. This title has always been one of the more difficult pre-Academy Award one-sheets to find, and we have only auctioned it four times over all our years of auctioning! What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds. It had fine surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this period) and it also had some creases and scuffs along parts of the folds, with a few in the solid black areas. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
