Artist: Charles Gehm
Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare advance one-sheet (note the "Opens June 13th at a theatre near you").

Condition: good. Note that this poster has never been folded! Most studios stopped folding posters somewhere around 1980, for a while offering theaters their choice of folded or unfolded posters. But please be aware that this poster was actually used in a theater, so it almost surely has light creases caused by rolling and unrolling the poster. If you are very condition conscious, then you should not bid on this poster, as it is sure to have at least some minor imperfections (we have given a brief description of the poster's defects in our condition grading above). But if you can accept minor defects, this is a great opportunity to purchase this poster (and any of the other 1000+ one-sheets we are currently selling on eBay!).

tattering and small paper loss in the upper left edge of the poster and to a lesser extent around the edges of the poster; scuffing, creases, and light smudges throughout the poster
