If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have previously been consigned another example of this poster, and that consignor told us that he got it from an employee who worked at MGM some time in the 1980s. We think this means that the poster was a studio-issued reproduction made in the 1980s to be sold directly to collectors. Please only bid on this poster if you would be happy to own a studio-issued reproduction! Condition: good to very good. There is a tiny area of paper loss in the background at upper left. There is minor separation at the crossfolds and there are a few small tears around the edges of the poster (some repaired with tape from the back). The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition.
