If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that movie posters from this movie are incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned two one-sheets (18 and 28 years ago), and no other posters, from this movie until we received this half-sheet! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thicker paper backing, it CAN'T be sent rolled (someone could conceivably roll it or try to do so, but we know it would definitely lessen its condition, so we will only send it in a very large flat package, unless the buyer insists, and then they would be responsible for any damage). What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had creases and tiny paper loss scattered across the horizontal fold, with a lesser amount on the vertical fold. It had some tiny paper loss in the blank borders. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but at some point after it was backed, it was slightly roughly handled, and it acquired slight creases in the top left blank corner, but they are not very noticeable or distracting.
