If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that there is some conflicting information about who created the art for this item. It is most often associated with Reynold Brown, but the website for Fred Fixler has the raw art (without any text) featured on it, and we have heard from two collectors who have the poster signed by Mr. Fixler. If anyone has further information, please e-mail us.

Condition: fair. There was surface paper loss in the left and right center of the image and someone crudely hand-colored those areas. There are creases and tears along the foldlines and around the edges of the poster.
