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

Important Added Info: Note that the color inset image on this paper banner (see our image) was printed on a separate sheet and then attached to that area of the banner (this was commonly done with paper banners, and some 30x40s and 40x60s of this period). This is how the poster was created.

Condition: good. The poster has many scuff marks and smudges scattered throughout, typical of paper banners of this period (see above). It also has some small tears around the edges. Someone put one small piece of tape on the back of a tear in the left border, but otherwise, no restoration was performed. Obviously, one could choose to have restoration performed, or they could display this great poster as it is.
