If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned two in all our years of auctioning and the last time was in 2017 and it sold for $430! Note also that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 insert posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 insert posters (note that most post-1970 inserts were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those inserts). Condition: very good. The poster was never folded. It has a 2" tear in the lower left and a 1 1/2" tear in the bottom border that both have tape on the back and a few light creases and smudges in the middle left. it has three numbers in the center of the bottom border (it came from a legendary collection where the collector numbered all his inserts in the bottom blank border!) Otherwise the poster is in really nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
