Note that there is an unusual element to this movie, which is that Elia Kazan had Warner Bros. buy the rights to this classic novel, and then he essentially junked around 90% of it, focusing on a small section of the book! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: The poster was originally fully folded, but has been stored tri-folded for so many years, that it has mostly lost that last fold, and so we will send the poster in a large flat package, as it seems a shame to refold it. The poster was lightly water stained throughout and there is slight discoloration (much more visible from the back of the poster), and rippling throughout. The two sections of the poster were attached with a few pieces of tape from the back, which does not affect the front. Other than the faint water staining and the rippling, the poster had few defects. This is the type of poster that responds extremely well to linenbacking by a top professional! After proper restoration (most of the water staining and rippling can be removed through chemical means during the mounting process), the poster will look great, and there will be little paint restoration anywhere on the image! This three-sheet was printed in 2 sections. Condition: good. Learn More about condition grades
