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 has several tears of varying lengths around the edges and several are repaired with tape from the back. There is paper loss at upper left and there are some lesser areas of paper loss at lower left. There is some surface paper loss at left in the back of the blue dinosaur. it is otherwise in pretty nice condition and certainly a competent restorer could repair the defects described above and paperback the poster, but please bear in mind the cost of restoration before placing a bid.
