If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that 1917 movie paper for this title is extremely rare. We have only auctioned one other half-sheet (with a different image) and no other movie paper for this film in all our years of auctioning! Because this poster is quite old, it can't be reasonably rolled (because that would almost surely damage the poster) and it will need to be sent in a large flat package, so bear in mind this additional cost when bidding on this poster. Condition: good. The poster was never folded. It has stains, pinholes and some tiny surface paper loss around the edges but the poster has otherwise survived in pretty nice condition and it is not very fragile, although it cannot be rolled (see above). While it can be displayed as it is, its defects are the sort that respond really well to restoration. Learn More about condition grades
