A prehistoric world of fantastic adventure come to life!"; "You'll be Shocked! You'll be Stunned! You'll be Thrilled!") starring Bill Bryant, Wanda Curtis, Douglas Henderson, Patti Gallagher, and Marvin Miller NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that Cuban posters from the 1960s and earlier are incredibly scarce! American movies were shown there until some time after the Castro revolution, and then they were not. It seems that the posters from those American movies were likely all trashed (or possibly recycled). This is one of a group of super rare Cuban posters from U.S. movies that we were consigned. All of them have varying degrees of condition issues, but one can't afford to quibble about that, because it is amazing just that they have survived at all! What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had some small tears and tiny paper loss around the edges. It had an 8" tear near the middle left of the image, with a 5" tear several inches above it, and two 12" tears in the lower part of the image. There was an 8" tear in the lower left border extending into the top left of the title. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Learn More about condition grades
