Artist: Tom Jung
Important Added Info: Note that this style A 40x60 is FAR more rare than the style A 30x40, which itself is far more rare than the style A one-sheet! To give you a sense of just how much more rare it is, we have auctioned a total of 17 style A 40x60s in all our years of auctioning, as compared to 31 style A 30x40s and 377 style A one-sheets!

Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has some creases scattered in the image, more so near the top. It had a 6" tear in the bottom center that, many years ago, had a clear piece of tape on the back, and that tape is long gone, and left yellowing on the back of that area, but not on the front. There is a long series of small tears in the upper 16" of the right blank border, but only blank white paper is affected, and there is darkening on the back of the area, which does not show through to the front. Certainly, most collectors could display this great poster just as it is, or certainly, restoration could be performed, with or without backing the poster.
