If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this one-sheet measures 28" x 41 3/4". Please do not bid on this poster thinking it is 27" x 41".

Condition: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the top two crossfolds and small paper loss at the bottom crossfold. There was minor wear on the foldlines and some creases scattered in the image. There were small tears, creases, and tiny stains around the edges of the poster, more so in the center of the bottom border. The poster was not very well backed, onto a thin linen, with no excess border. Any talented restorer could remove the poster from the poor backing, and then properly linenback it, and afterwards, the poster will look great, with little paint restoration anywhere in the image!
