Artist: Roger Kastel
Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster! We have only auctioned two examples in all our years of auctioning.

Note that this is one of 130 Thirty by Forty posters in this set of auctions which mostly contains unfolded one-sheets. At first glance, a Thirty by Forty LOOKS similar to a one-sheet, but they are printed on a heavier paper stock and they are not ever folded, which many of the one-sheets from the same time period are. Most Thirty by Forties are far more rare than the one-sheets from the same titles. Please bid on this poster knowing it is a Thirty by Forty and NOT a one-sheet.

Condition: good. The poster has very slightly faded (mostly noticeable in the red coloring of the swimmer and in the title areas at upper and lower center). There are several creases scattered in various areas (especially at upper center and some are within the artwork area of the shark's face). There are a few relatively small tack holes around the edges and some are in portions of the art of the ocean at upper left and right (approximately 2" under the blank area of the sky.) It has otherwise survived pretty well for a poster that was likely displayed at some time, but please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this rare 30x40 poster prior to placing a bid.
