If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we previously auctioned a different style half-sheet from this movie (which was heavily restored and still sold for $805), but we have never before auctioned THIS style of half-sheet! Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thicker paper backing, it CAN'T be sent rolled (someone could conceivably roll it or try to do so, but we know it would definitely lessen its condition, so we will only send it in a very large flat package, unless the buyer insists, and then they would be responsible for any damage).

It had some faint stains scattered throughout, including in the stars' faces. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. A really talented restorer performed excellent restoration, because you can still see slight signs of the stains, but they didn't paint over the faces, although they did touch up in those areas. This extremely rare poster will display really well on the new owner's wall, but bear in mind the restoration it has had. Learn More about condition grades
