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: fair. The card had many stains and smudges scattered throughout, and there are many tears and areas of paper loss around the edges of the card. Overall, the poster was in fair condition prior to paperbacking. The restorer did the best they could under the circumstances, but the card required a great deal of restoration throughout, and also all of the lettering has been re-painted as well as the background (the restorer limited the restoration in Moore's restoration to the damaged areas), and the restoration is definitely noticeable and the card has a "restored" look.
