If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this is a "country of origin" poster for this English movie! Note that this first release English one-sheet from this most loved black comedy is incredibly rare! We have never auctioned it before, or anything else from the first English release.

Condition: very good. There is tiny separation at the top crossfold. There are diagonal creases above and below the left end of the top and bottom horizontal folds. There are pinholes in the corners and a small tear in the center of the top border. Otherwise, the poster is in nice condition! It will display just fine exactly as it is, or certainly, its minor defects can be completely removed through simple linenbacking.
