Artist: S. Neil Fujita Important Added Info: Note that the original ad campaign for this classic movie was very unusual in that the U.S. posters had only a tiny bit of art, and the three-sheets and six-sheets were designed to look like teaser posters, and they even give the sensation that they might be incomplete. A very unusual ad campaign for a very special movie! Also note that this poster was stamped "FOREIGN" which means it was printed for use outside the United States (there would also have been posters stamped "DOMESTIC" for use within the United States). Often, the "FOREIGN" posters would have a different (sometimes racier) image than that for the one used in the United States. Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Finally, note this three-sheet poster was tri-folded only (which means there is one less vertical machine fold than usual). This means the poster has a significantly lesser number of folds than with three-sheets folded in the "regular" way, which is nice! Tri-folded three-sheets need to be sent in an oversized flat package, which measures roughly 13" x 30", so they cost more to send than regularly folded three-sheets, especially if they are sent to non-U.S. addresses. Condition: very good to fine. The poster appears to have never been used and other than some minor fold and border wear it is in very nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
