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 (although, because we don't feel it would hurt the poster to re-fold it, it could also be sent flat, if the buyer has flat purchases to combine it with and no rolled purchases). Condition: very good. The poster has 2" of separation at the top of the vertical fold and 1" of separation at the bottom of the vertical fold, and someone put a piece of tape on the back of that area. There are some faint scuffs in the light blue background areas and a pinhole in each corner. Other than the above truly minor defects, the poster is in really nice condition!
