NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster! We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning. Note also that this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 insert 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 insert posters (note that most post-1970 inserts were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those inserts). Condition: good. The poster has a 2-3" tear in the lower center area of MacLean's face (with two pinholes) and there is some paper loss at upper right and center. A tiny blank border tear at lower left has been repaired with tape from the back and there is some tape behind a small tear to the left of the upper center paper loss.
