Artist: Tom Jung Important Added Info: Note that this poster was stamped "FOREIGN" which means it was printed for use outside the United States (this was at the time when three-sheets and six-sheets were barely used in the United States, and all of the known three-sheets and six-sheets on this title are stamped "FOREIGN"). This six-sheet poster was tri-folded only (which means there is one less vertical machine fold than usual). This means the poster has a significantly lesser number of folds than with six-sheets folded in the "regular" way, which is nice! Tri-folded six-sheets need to be sent in an oversized flat package, which measures roughly 16" x 38", so they cost more to send than regularly folded six-sheets, especially if they are sent to non-U.S. addresses. This six-sheet was printed in 2 sections. Condition: very good. The poster was never used. It received some light water staining in the left half of the top of the poster extending down into the top edge of the image above the tagline, but it is mostly only noticeable in the blank border. There is some similar, but lesser water stains in the right half of the bottom border (these two areas were next to each other when the poster was fully folded, and they were the areas that got slightly water stained, but it did not damage the paper. There are a few other very minor water stains in the borders of both sections. Since I would imagine almost any collector would choose to linenback this poster (if for no other reason than to eliminate the many foldlines), then the slight water staining described above is something that will completely vanish during the linenbacking process. After linenbacking by a top professional, this poster will look incredible, and there will be virtually no restoration anywhere on it! Learn More about condition grades
