Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster! We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning (and it is not only this poster that is rare, because we have only previously auctioned two inserts, a window card, and a herald, and no lobby cards or stills.) Condition: good to very good. There are a number of diagonal creases scattered down the left and right of the poster. There are also light stains in the right border. There is separation and tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some small tears and separation scattered in the top horizontal fold. There is staining on the back of the middle right of the image, but fortunately it has very little effect on the front. These are the type of defects that respond really well to restoration. Most of the creases and light staining can be removed chemically and during the linenbacking process, and after a relatively simple linenbacking the poster will look fantastic and have very little paint restoration.
