If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: This poster has been professionally linenbacked. It now looks great, and most dealers would describe it as "fine (or mint) on linen". We have noted the defects that were restored below (and feel everyone should always do this!). Many collectors would not be aware of the restoration this poster has had unless it was specifically shown to them!

Condition: good to very good. This poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. It appears to have had the following defects: The borders of the poster were trimmed off, and there were smudges in the top white area in the bottom yellow area, and there was separation along the foldlines. The restorer put new borders around the edges of the poster and did some restoration within the image area.
