If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we were not aware until recently that Trinidad printed its own posters, but this poster is certainly proof of that! We don't know if they solely printed posters for major releases like this one, or if they did posters for all releases. Certainly, it seems that very few posters survive that were printed in Trinidad. In the case of this poster, it is certainly possible that this is from a 1960s re-release (or first Trinidadian release). If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and separation and tiny paper loss in parts of some foldlines. There were some tiny circular holes scattered throughout the poster, and some creases, smudges, and areas of paper loss around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in 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.
