Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this three-sheet, and that was 15 years ago, when it sold for $2,036 (and we have also never auctioned a six-sheet)! Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Condition: very good. The poster has some tiny water stains on the back of the upper right, and they show through to the front in the yellow area below the "BA" of "BARI". There are some small stains in the lower right border. There are some creases along the folds and some scattered throughout the poster, with some pinholes around the edges. Otherwise, the poster is in really nice condition, and the colors are extremely bright. The water stains described above can surely be removed during the linenbacking process, and after a simple linenbacking, it will display wonderfully! Learn More about condition grades
