Important Added Info: Note that this cool brochure is titled "How the 'world' was created: The story of the making of the motion picture", and it has the Saul Bass-like art (which is not by Saul Bass; see below), and also a full page with the Jack Davis art. We have never auctioned this brochure before! Note that many people have credited the art on the cover of this brochure to Saul Bass, and it certainly IS "in the Saul Bass style". While there are many, many websites that have this poster credited to Saul Bass, we think it is the work of another artist. This was confirmed by a collector who created an exhibition of Bass art, and was told by Saul's daughter that this poster was not created by her father. In the case of this poster, we know that Saul Bass did a title treatment for the movie, so that might explain some of the confusion. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
