If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster is FAR more rare than the one-sheets or lobby cards from this movie. We have only auctioned it once before, and that was 9 years ago! 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. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster was never folded. It had a semicircular tear in the bottom right blank corner that separated that area from the rest of the poster. It had smudges, scuffs, creases, and tears scattered throughout the poster. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, and displays well, but the restorer chose to paint over the entire white background area, to "even it out". Learn More about condition grades
