If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! Not only that, but this poster has a far more colorful and far better printed image than that of the one-sheet, and it also has an added large picnic basket in the background. The 30x40 has a similar image to this, but with different coloring, and that poster and this poster are surely the two best first release U.S. posters from this title. Condition: good. The poster has some discoloration scattered in some areas from exposure to moisture mostly in the lower half (unfortunately in some portions of the artwork where there are also some scuff marks, creases and remnants of paper from another source). It has a few lighter scuff marks in the rest of the poster and there is some writing in one border. After some proper restoration the rare poster will look fantastic, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it. Learn More about condition grades
