If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: fair to good. The poster has creases, defects, areas of paper loss and tears of varying lengths along parts of some edges and some of the tears at right are repaired with tape from the back. Someone crossed out the faces of the stars at lower right and there is some surface paper loss in Medina's face at upper right. There is some pencil writing in the upper left credits. Certainly the poster could be restored and backed and it would look great, but please bear in mind its significant defects and cost of restoration before placing a bid.
