We previously auctioned the style A one-sheet, but that was 20 years ago! Posters from this movie are extremely rare! Condition: fair to good. There is a second vertical fold 1/2" to the right of the regular one, and there are tears scattered down the center of the poster. There is small paper loss at the top crossfold and larger paper loss at the middle and bottom crossfolds. There are some tears and small areas of paper loss on parts of the horizontal folds, including two 2" vertical tears in Howard's face (see our image). Someone once put tape on the back of several of the tears and also on the back of several border tears, and some of that tape has bled through to the front. Obviously, this poster can be "rescued" by a talented restorer, but please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its defects described above or are willing to pay to have them properly restored.
