If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: fair to good. The poster apparently had a snipe glued to the top center, because there is a color difference in the blue that was under the snipe and in the area around it (see our super-sized image). It also has pairs of staple holes around the edges, many of which are enlarged due to rough removal of the staples. There is significant paper loss in the bottom right (see our image), caused when the poster was pulled off the wall. There is also separation and tiny paper loss at the bottom two crossfolds, and some creases and slight rippling scattered in the poster, with a few faint smudges and dot stains. There is a tiny pair of staple holes in Peck's hair at upper center. Obviously, the above defects (especially the paper loss at bottom right) are really significant, but it is also true that otherwise, the majority of the defects are around the edges of the poster. After a talented restorer linenbacks this poster, it will look great, and it will not require much restoration, except in the area of the missing paper, and of the staple holes around the edges. We at eMoviePoster.com can provide the new owner (or their restorer) with a super high quality scan of the missing small credits at lower right, so that that person can have that area restored exactly!
