We have never auctioned even a single movie paper item from this movie until we were consigned this three-sheet poster! Note also that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Also note that this poster has been kraftbacked, which means it was backed onto a brown paper soon after it was printed (this process is called "kraft-backing", and posters with it are called "kraft-backed"). One could have it professionally removed from the kraft paper and linenbacked, and it would look great! Condition: good. The poster has been kraftbacked (see above). It also has pinholes and paper loss in the corners and some other defects scattered through the image (see our image). One can have it professionally removed from the kraftbacking and restored, but bear all of this in mind before bidding on this extremely rare poster. Learn More about condition grades
