If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has creases and tears of varying lengths (approximately 1" or less) along portions of some edges but there is a larger tear at lower right that extends through the inset image there. The back of the borders are covered in light brown tape (as well as the tear). It has some smudges around the edges and a few light scuff marks, but it is otherwise in pretty nice condition and after paperbacking the poster will look great! Learn More about condition grades
