NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. The poster was folded in half an extra time and there was tiny paper loss at some crossfolds and creases and scuffs on parts of many foldlines. There were pinholes and creases around the edges of the poster and some smudges and stains in the white background areas. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was backed onto a thin linen backing, with no excess linen, and it is lifting from the linen and slightly torn at the left of the top foldline. If I owned this poster, I would have it removed from this linen and re-backed, and after proper restoration in the background areas and on the foldlines, the poster would look great!
