If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. Condition: good to very good. Prior to being paperbacked, there was a 2 1/2" tear in the middle of the bottom edge and there were smudges and scuff marks scattered throughout the poster. The poster was fairly well backed but some of the repairs are evident upon close inspection. Learn More about condition grades
