If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning (and we have only auctioned one insert, some stills and lobby cards for the film but no other posters!). Note also that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine 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 machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good. The poster has never been folded. It has paper loss around the edges (and someone replaced a portion of that paper loss at right with some white paper - see our image). It has some scuffs and creases in portions of the image and there is a large, partial diagonal crease at upper center. Still, many of the defects affect blank white paper and after proper restoration the poster very rare will display well, but of course bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it.
