If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. The poster has creases and tears in the border with paper loss in the bottom left blank corner and tiny paper loss in two areas of the borders. It has tears in the left border that extend into the yellow background and there are black smudges in portions of that yellow background. Someone did some tape repairs to the back of the border where there were tears but otherwise did not restoration. After relatively paperbacking and restoration by a talented restorer, this poster will display fantastically. Learn More about condition grades
