If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. The poster had small paper loss at the crossfolds and fine surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines, with small tears and tiny paper loss in the bottom of the vertical foldline. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was simply mounted onto a thin linen with no excess, and no restoration was performed. Someone put a 1" x 10" piece of paper tape in the center of the top blank border to cover play dates that were written in that area. If I owned this cool poster, I would have it removed from the thin backing and have it properly linenbacked, and it would not require much paint restoration at all. Learn More about condition grades
