Important Added Info: Note this one-sheet is either from a 1940s re-release, or possibly from a 1930s roadshow release, when the movie played in midnight shows in small towns. Because we don't know for certain which of the above is true, we are listing it as being from 1935, but please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept the possibility that it might be from a 1940s re-release. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this one-sheet measures 28" x 41" [71 x 104 cm].
UPDATED 04/11/2023: Note that, as seen above, we originally mentioned that this poster "is either from a 1940s re-release, or possibly from a 1930s roadshow release". However, in 2023 we were finally consigned a 1935 first release one-sheet, which proves that this poster is from a 1930s or 1940s roadshow re-release. Condition: very good to fine. There are areas of tattering and small paper loss around the edges of the poster in the blank borders. The poster is in otherwise very nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
