Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this poster, and that was 29 years ago, when it sold for $935! Note that this poster was folded oddly, and therefore will need to be sent in a larger than normal flat package that measures approximately 15" x 16". Please bear this in mind before bidding on this poster UPDATED 05/18/2020: Note that we have updated the Condition information. Condition: poor to fair. The poster has major defects, as clearly seen in our image. These include surface paper loss on Reid's sombrero, paper remnants glued to his nose and above the T in "Dictator" (perhaps from a snipe), and the back has light brown stains from exposure to moisture. In addition, it was folded oddly (see above). Obviously, it can be "rescued" through restoration, but bear all of this in mind before bidding on this rare poster. Learn More about condition grades
