We have only previous had this one-sheet twice before in all our years of auctioning! Condition: good to very good. The poster has separation in the bottom quarter of the vertical fold (someone put a piece of tape on the back of the center of the bottom border, and it bleeds through to the front). There are tiny tears and tiny bits of paper loss in the top and bottom quarters of the vertical fold and small separation at the crossfolds, with a lesser amount of wear on the other folds. There are some tack holes around the edges and some faint smudges. This poster has many minor condition issues, but they are all pretty easily corrected through restoration. After a simple linenbacking, the poster will look fantastic! Learn More about condition grades
