If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that the ad campaign for this movie involved a sensationalistic image of the serial killer's shadowy hand over his female victim, with the tagline "Sensational LIPSTICK murder!" above it. But only this window card featured the chilling message he wrote on one victim's mirror, "Ask Mother"! Also note that this window card was folded in half, and because it was folded perfectly in half, it can be sent in one of our standard size mailers. If it is purchased by itself (or solely with other posters that can be sent in standard size mailers), it will be sent that way. But if it is purchased with posters that need to be sent in oversized mailers, then we will of course send it that way. Condition: fair. Learn More about condition grades
