If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. Condition: good to very good. The card had some creases, scuffs, and faint water stains scattered throughout, but was otherwise in pretty good condition prior to paperbacking. A talented restorer paperbacked the card and performed slight restoration to the image area (including slightly bleaching the card). The restorer put paint over most of the blank borders and the background areas, to "even them out". The card displays well and the faint image defects are not noticeable from any reasonable viewing distance, although the card slightly has a "restored" look in the background areas.
