If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned one in all our years of auctioning and that was in 2009! BUT THERE IS SOMETHING REALLY FASCINATING ABOUT IT! The back of the poster has the exact same printed poster printed on it, but everything is reversed (it is a mirror image). Obviously this is like how modern "double-sided" posters are printed, but this can't be that because the paper is too thick for light to really shine through it all. In addition, the title area on the back is not printed on the poster but instead it is actually two snipes that have bee glued to that area (but of course they have reverse printing!). So we have no clue whatsoever what this is, but it certainly is fascinating. Perhaps it is some sort of test poster, but why it is printed in reverse, we have no clue. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: good to very good. The poster has some stains around the edges and some smudges and scuff marks scattered in the image (and those defects are on both sides because it is double-sided (see our images).
