If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have previously auctioned five examples of this one-sheet, but only two of those were in the last 24 years! Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds, with some tiny bits of paper loss on parts of the folds, more so in the top and bottom quarters of the vertical fold. It had pinholes and tears around the edges, with small paper loss in the right blank corners. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was restored by a museum restorer, onto a thin paper backing, with no excess, so that the poster still looks and feels like an unbacked one-sheet. They did a nice job on the restoration, and the poster will display well on the new owner's wall! Learn More about condition grades
