Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned one in all our years of auctioning and that was twenty years ago!

Condition: fair to good. The poster had many creases and some tears along parts of the folds, more so down the vertical fold. It also had tears, paper loss, pinholes and some tape stains around the edges. Many years ago some very amateur "restorer" taped some pieces of other posters to the back of areas in the border that had paper loss and they also put some tape on the back of the tears in the borders and folds. The paper loss was mostly in the blank borders, but in areas of the bottom border it affected the small writing in that area. Obviously the poster has really significant condition issues, but it is also true that any talented restorer can remove the amateur "restoration" from this rare poster, and after it is properly re-backed it will display wonderfully, but bear all of the above in mind and look at our super-sized image before placing a bid.
