Artist: Anselmo Ballester Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this 1948 first release Italian one-panel, which has incredible different art of Rita Hayworth and Gene Kelly by Anselmo Ballester! Condition: good. The poster has small paper loss at the bottom crossfold and tiny paper loss at the other two crossfolds. It has many small tears on most folds. It has pinholes around the edges, with some tears and paper loss in the bottom blank border. The entire poster has darkened somewhat, and there is staining on the back of the top left corner, which was on the outside when the poster was fully folded, but it only slightly affects the front at all. There are some white tape repairs on the back of the poster, but no restoration was performed. If I owned this great poster, I would give it to a top professional, because after proper linenbacking, it will display wonderfully. But please bear in mind the poster's condition before placing a bid on it. Learn More about condition grades
