If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that the poster was folded slightly off center, and that it will need to be sent in a larger-than-normal flat package. This six-sheet was printed in 4 sections. Condition: fair to good. All of the blank borders of the poster were neatly trimmed off. There is paper loss in the "K" of "KEEL" in the credits, and there is much separation on some foldlines. There are many pinholes, creases, tears, and tiny areas of paper loss, and some light water stains scattered throughout the poster. This poster is in urgent need of expert restoration! This poster has really significant imperfections. We may have written a few words about those imperfections, but we may not have, as you can likely see them by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster. It DOES have major defects, which are likely to be very noticeable in our "large" or "super-sized" images that you can click on from our small image at right (if the item has significant defects that are difficult to see in our image, then we try to describe those in words elsewhere within the auction). Note that some of these posters have tape repairs on the back, and we note more significant repairs, but we do not note just a few small pieces of tape on the back of a poster. PLEASE DO NOT USE WISHFUL THINKING WHEN LOOKING AT THE CONDITION OF THIS POSTER! It DOES have significant defects, and they may be such that you would not be happy with this item. We know that some collectors could accept this item's defects, and display it as is, and we also know that many collectors would only be happy with this poster if they had it restored, so please do not bid on it unless you feel sure you can accept it as it is, or are willing to pay to have it properly restored. Of course, you should realize that if you do not bid on this poster because of its condition defects, it may be quite some time before you see this poster offered again! NOTE THAT WE ARE SELLING SIX INCOMPLETE THREE-SHEETS THIS WEEK (around one-third of each is missing). There is no one word description of the condition of these, so we arbitrarily called them "fair", but made this major defect very clear in each such auction. Learn More about condition grades
