Note that Esther Fernandez was a popular Mexican actress who had never appeared in an American movie, and could barely speak English. But she was signed to appear in this movie (because they needed a pretty woman in a cast of all rough men), and she made this sole appearance, and then returned to Mexico. However, when this movie was released in an English/Spanish version for Spanish speaking audiences, Fernandez was bumped up to second billing under Alan Ladd! This was likely done to please Latin American audiences who were a major demographic during World War II. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Richardson Studio Condition: very good to fine. The poster was folded an extra time resulting in some extra horizontal folds but they are not very noticeable. Overall, the poster is in nice condition and it displays well. Note that this poster was cut slightly off-center after printing resulting in a thin blank border at right and it does NOT appear to have been trimmed. Learn More about condition grades
