Design by Dave Roe, medium-thin flat index "fly-posting" (smooth front/rough reverse) stock poster is in used (B-) condition; this example exhibits a moderate amount of fading/toning, along with a series of light moisture stains traversing the upper part of the image area, a bit of handling, light edge/corner-tip wear and a few other assorted minor issues here and there... still not all that bad, quite presentable overall.
