Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one with this design and blue background in all our years of auctioning (and we are auctioning the other rare "yellow style" half-sheet in a separate auction!). Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. The poster was folded once vertically down center. It has brown paper tape behind the right and left edges which slightly darkens the and creases those edges. It has some small, fine creases scattered throughout (see our image). It is otherwise in generally nice condition and after paperbacking with some proper restoration the poster will look great (but one could certainly choose to display it from a reasonable viewing distance just as is!).
