We have only previously auctioned a window card, a jumbo lobby card, and a Swedish poster (and no lobby cards at all) from this movie before receiving this Australian daybill! Note that this poster was mounted on a heavy board and must be sent in a large flat package that measures approximately 17" x 42". Condition: fair to good. The poster was mounted to a heavy board, likely soon after it was printed. It has many stains and smudges around the edges, with stains in part of the faces of both stars, and some other stains scattered throughout the image. It has what appears to be a printing defect, which resulted in a diagonal line running across the lower left of the image, where the coloring is off, and some smaller similar lines in the stars' hair and in the man's nose and cheek (see our image). Obviously, it can be restored, but bear this in mind (and look at our super-sized image) before bidding. Learn More about condition grades
