We have never auctioned one with this different art and blue title in all our years of auctioning! Condition: fair to good. The poster has discoloration along several inches of the lower edge (with some traces of mildew, especially on back at lower right) and that has caused the lower edge to have some deterioration and paper loss (see our image). There is fainter discoloration at upper right, and some in the title area. Fortunately, the art is mostly "all there" with some surface paper loss at lower right, and after proper restoration the very rare poster will display well, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it.
