NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Rehak Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster! We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning. Condition: good to very good. The poster has clean separation in a few portions of the lower vertical foldline (and one should exercise caution in opening the poster in that area). There are very small tears around the edges which affect blank paper and those tears (and the minor separation in the crossfolds) are backed by restoration tape. There are two diagonal creases in the lower right corner along with a few tiny tears, and that area has been backed by a 3" x 8 1/4" piece of tape which very slightly darkens portions of that corner. There is a tiny tear near the center crossfold that has been repaired with tape from the back and there is some surface paper loss along portions of the folds. The ultra-rare poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition, and certainly after a pretty simple linenbacking it will look great! Learn More about condition grades
