If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: 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. The poster was folded horizontally seven times and it has slight discoloration scattered in some areas from exposure to moisture (mostly on back but quite noticeable on front of the blank borders and in portions of the title and some other light-colored areas). It has some creases and scuff marks in the art and there is a tear in the background at upper left (repaired with tape from the back). It has several tears at right and some small border loss at center right and one small tear is repaired with tape from the back at lower right. It has a few small blank border tears at left and two are repaired with tape from the back and small clear tape on front at center left. There are some tiny pinholes and pieces of tape in the corners. The majority of the defects are mainly around the edges and the artwork is mostly "all there" and after paperbacking with some professional restoration (at which time it is likely that most of the water staining could be removed through chemical means) the very desirable insert will display quite well, but see our super-sized image and bear in mind all of these things and cost of restoration before placing a bid.
