If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been laminated! It is quite likely that there is no way to reverse this process. However, I have seen many posters and lobby cards that have been laminated for over 20 years, and the lamination does not hurt the items in any way (and some of the posters were laminated as much as 40 years ago, so it certainly seems that if it were going to damage the item, it would have happened by now!), plus it seems to completely protect them, while allowing them to be easily displayed with no fear of damage. HOWEVER, PLEASE DO NOT BID ON THIS POSTER UNLESS YOU WANT TO PURCHASE A LAMINATED INSERT!

Condition: good to very good. Note that this poster has been laminated! PLEASE DO NOT BID ON THIS POSTER UNLESS YOU WANT TO PURCHASE A LAMINATED INSERT! Prior to being laminated, the poster had been folded in the usual way. There was slight wear on the top foldline and the entire poster had darkened somewhat. There was a thumb tack hole in each corner. No restoration was performed, and the poster was then laminated, and it likely looks exactly as it did at that time, which was over 30 years ago!
