If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this 1961 re-release 40x60 poster (and we have only auctioned one example of a first release 40x60)! Also note that most 40x60s from this period were printed on a heavy stock and usually only sent to theaters rolled. However, the studios would also sometimes make special 40x60s that were created on a somewhat thinner paper and were folded when they were created. We can't say for certain that this poster was sent to theaters folded, but it is printed on a "one-sheet-like" paper, so we think that is very likely. Condition: good. There are many pinholes around the edges. There is 8" of separation in the top of the far right vertical fold. There is clear tape on the back of parts of several folds where there was separation.
