Artist: Saul Bass Important Added Info: Note that the style B half-sheet has a small body silhouette with an added large image above it of the stars behind blinds. Personally, I much prefer this style A half-sheet, which is solely the body silhouette image, surely one of the most famous movie posters images there is! Condition: very good. The poster was never folded. There are some faint creases, smudges, and small stains scattered throughout the poster. There was a small V-shaped tear in the upper right background area, and someone put a piece of tape on the back of that. The poster has never had any restoration other than the single tape repair. Certainly, I think many collectors could happily display this great poster just as it is, or I could imagine other collectors simply having it cleaned and flattened, or one could have more substantial restoration performed, to try to make it "look perfect", but in all three cases, it will look wonderful on the new owner's wall, and I am envious of that person already!
