Artist: Rene Peron
Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned one in all our years of auctioning and that was 10 years ago (and now that very same poster has been reconsigned to us for this auction, so it is still the only example we have ever auctioned!).

Condition: very good. The poster was folded in half an extra time and it has a small amount of separation on the fold that was on the outside when it was fully folded. Otherwise, it has pretty minor fold and border wear.
