If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: poor to fair. The poster is in much lesser condition. It appears to have been ripped off of a wall which has "thinned" the paper around the edges (which have many creases, defects, areas of paper loss and tears of varying lengths). There are several significant areas of foldline and crossfold separation and there are tears in portions of the art in several areas. There is slight discoloration scattered in various areas (more so at bottom) and there are green paint stains at top. A few of the tears or other defects as described above are repaired with tape from the back. The poster is in urgent need of restoration. Certainly a top restorer can repair the defects described above, and after, the poster will display really well, but please bear in mind the poster's many defects and the cost of restoration before placing a bid.
