If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thin paper backing, it can be sent rolled (however, it will be rolled with the image outward, because paperbacked posters should always be rolled that way, while linen posters are always rolled with the image inward), and it will likely need to be sent in a 6" tube, because rolling it more tightly might damage the poster.

Prior to paperbacking, the poster had tiny paper loss and a few tiny tears on small parts of some folds, with pinholes and tears around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was paperbacked, likely by a museum restorer onto a thin backing with no excess, and it surely displayed well when they were finished. However, since that time, it acquired some smudges and stains in the top blank border, and the poster is now lightly rippled in some areas. If I owned this great poster, I would surely have a top restorer re-back it, and that would remove the rippling, and it is also possible that the poster can be flattened. The smudges and stains in the top blank border can also of course be restored, but one might choose to not bother with them, since they will not show when the poster is framed.
