If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Condition: good to very good. Prior to paperbacking, the card had had its blank top trimmed off, and there were some faint scuffs and faint smudging scattered in the light colored areas. Overall, the card was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The card was nicely backed, and the restorer replaced the missing top, but pretty much left the minor defects alone (and they are not very noticeable or distracting).
