If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this insert has had some of its blank borders trimmed and it now measures 13 1/4" x 33 1/2". Please do not bid on this poster thinking it is 14" x 36". 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! Finally, note that there is a censor stamp in the top right corner in the background area and a paper snipe in the bottom right corner.

Condition: good.
