If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned a 1939 first release half-sheet from this movie until we received this poster! Also note that this poster was gel backed, and while it could be rolled and sent in a tube, we would worry that doing so would either damage the poster or bring back the folds. Therefore, we would much prefer to send it in a large flat package. However, if the new buyer insists, we will send it in a tube, but only if they accept responsibility for doing so. Condition: good to very good. Prior to gelbacking, the poster had tiny bits of paper loss along the folds, with pinholes, smudges, and a few tears around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good to condition prior to restoration. A talented restorer gel backed the poster (meaning they backed the poster onto a gel material) and they then performed restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, so that the poster still exactly looks and feels like an original poster (and it is!), with no backing at all. You can see signs of the restoration, but the poster displays pretty well, but it acquired tiny bits of surface paper loss in the center of the bottom blank border and a 1/2" tear to the right of that.
