Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this half-sheet, and that was 12 years ago!

Condition: poor to fair. The poster is in much lesser condition. It has faded and it has many significant creases, smudges and stains scattered throughout (see our image). There is brown paper tape over all four borders that is folded over to the back. While this is a 1940 poster, it was re-used in 1946 and the original title was painted over with the "The Caveman" re-release title. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this poster prior to placing a bid and please do not bid unless you can accept the defects described above.
