Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! Note also that this item will need to be sent in a very large package that measures approximately 31" x 42" so bear this added expense in mind before bidding.

UPDATED 05/21/2023: Note that we mentioned that this poster was mounted onto foamcore in the Condition section. However, some bidders were missing this so we have added it to the Auction Title. Because some may have missed this, we have reset the bidding on this poster.

Condition: good. Years ago, some collector had this poster mounted onto foamcore. While most collectors do not like this, I have seen many posters that have been mounted on foamcore for years, and it never has any ill effects on the poster, so I am not sure why there is a bias against it. Unfortunately they did not do a very good job gluing the poster The poster the foam core, so it has some rippling and creases mainly in the upper half. There are faint smudges scattered in various areas and there are small tears in the man's right leg and at upper center. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid.
