If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. The poster had paper loss at the bottom crossfold and some creases, tears, and tiny paper loss on part of the right half of the bottom foldline and in part of the bottom half of the vertical foldline with a lesser amount of wear on the other folds and in the borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Note that at some point after linenbacking, the poster was roughly handled and there are now minor creases in the upper right border (solely in the excess linen, and not in the poster itself).
