If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an "international" style one-sheet (meaning it was printed in the U.S. for use in non-U.S. countries). Note the lack of a ratings box and NSS information. Also note that the domestic U.S. posters for this movie have a very uninteresting image of Hartman smiling with a tiny inset image of Poitier (perhaps they wanted to hide how depressing the movie is, and also hide that it deals with a blind girl, because Hartman doesn't appear blind). But the international posters have a really striking image with a close up of Hartman wearing dark glasses and Poitier reflected in one of the lenses! Condition: good to very good. There is a censor stamp in the blank white background at upper right and there are some creases and scuff marks along the foldlines (mostly at the crossfolds). The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
