Artist: Tom Jung Important Added Info: NOTE THAT THIS POSTER HAS A MUCH DARKER, RICHER BLUE BACKGROUND THAN OTHER EXAMPLES OF THIS POSTER WE HAVE SEEN. But we have examined the poster very closely, and it is surely an original poster, and the dark blue color is surely how it was printed. Perhaps, due to the great popularity of this movie, there was more than one print run of this poster, and during this particular print run, a brighter background color was used, or perhaps the executives decided they preferred the lighter blue color. We have auctioned 16 style B inserts from this movie, and only seven (including this one) have been this dark blue style, and the others have been the "regular" light blue style. Condition: good. The poster was never folded. It has light ripples scattered throughout. It has discoloration along approximately 6" of the lower edge and approximately 2" of the upper edge (see our image). There are a few creases around the edges of the image area, but it is otherwise "all there" and after linenbacking (when it is likely that much or most of the discoloration can be removed chemically), and after proper restoration the poster will display well, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it.
