If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that there is some conflicting information about who created the art for this item. It is most often associated with Reynold Brown, but the website for Fred Fixler has the raw art (without any text) featured on it, and we have heard from two collectors who have the poster signed by Mr. Fixler. If anyone has further information, please e-mail us. Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. What IS paperbacking?

It had some stains and tears around the edges. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to paperbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above. Learn More about condition grades
