If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this window card (and several others we are auctioning in this part of our major auction) has been linenbacked. They were recently backed by a restoration studio that prefers linenbacking to paperbacking, because there is less alteration to the card. There is no right or wrong to this, just a matter of personal opinion. On each of those window cards, the restorer left 1/2" of excess linen on all four sides (see our image).

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had nail holes, tears, and some paper loss around the edges, with some stains and smudges scattered throughout the image. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
