If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this is a VERY odd poster! The theater that used it needed a three-sheet, but they only had this 40x60. So they slightly trimmed it, and then they glued sections of blank paper to the top and bottom of it, so that it then measured 39 1/4" x 76 3/4", and then they surely displayed it in their three-sheet frame. You might go the rest of your life without seeing another poster like this, unless you made one yourself!

Condition: fair. This is a slightly trimmed 40x60 that was made into a homemade three-sheet. It has many other defects as well (see above and see our image).
