If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: very good. there is an extra vertical fold just to the left of the regular one; there are minor creases and smudges along the foldlines; there are several pinholes in each corner; the ones in the lower left were roughly removed and there was some paper loss in the words "Based on"; there are black smudges in the center of the bottom blank border; there are creases around the edges of the poster; The poster is in better condition than the above makes it sound! Its defects are mostly relatively minor and would vanish if it were linenbacked and the poster would look wonderful!
