Condition: good to very good. 3/4" of the bottom blank border was folded back and the top 2" was folded back. The poster was lightly folded in half an extra time. It had a 12" tear in the top border 1/2" to the right of the vertical fold, but no paper loss on the tear and someone put archival tape on the back of it. The poster has some creases along the folds and some creases scattered throughout, and just a few pinholes in the borders, with some tiny tears and slight darkening. After a simple linenbacking, this extremely rare poster will display really well! Learn More about condition grades
