About the Item

This was to show that tax had been paid on displaying the poster at the time of the film's release. The poster is in excellent condition, with the colors remaining very bright. Very minor restoration to folds, and an extremely small tear in the lower border. This piece is conservation Linen backed and would be shipped rolled in a strong tube.
