Artist: K. Wenzel
Important Added Info: The poster was placed on to a very thin linen backing shortly after being printed. The purpose was to reinforce the poster, so that it would survive, when it was passed from theater to theater, and when it was put up on walls and taken down. Such posters can be professionally removed from the original linen and placed on to a proper linen backing. I have done this to several such posters, and they end up looking wonderful!

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair to good. It appears that some amount has been trimmed from each edge of the poster. There are glue stains on the back of the poster on the back of the linen and there are some scuff marks and areas of rippling throughout the poster.
