If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that ANY posters from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned two window cards and a one-sheet from this movie until we received this half-sheet, which we have never auctioned before!

Note that because the poster has condition issues, we don't want to roll the poster prior to mailing, because we believe that rolling the poster would likely lessen its condition even more. If you specifically request it, we will roll this poster, but you will not be able to return it. Otherwise, it will be sent in a large flat package that measures approximately 24" x 30" (but it can be combined with other posters the same size, including ones that could be rolled). Please bear the expense of a large package in mind before bidding on this poster.

Condition: good. The poster has paper loss in the bottom right corner that extends into the end of the credits, but mostly affects the blank border. There are creases and some tiny bits of surface paper loss on both folds. There are some tears, smudges, and a few small stains around the edges. There was enough separation on the folds that someone put clear tape on the back of both folds.
