Note that one of Warner Bros' executives was murdered by the Nazis in Germany in the 1930s, which caused that studio to be the first to cease distributing their movies in Germany. They also were the first major studio to make this openly anti-Nazi movie, which pulled no punches! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good to very good. The poster had surface paper loss in the very top center of the image (in the right of Robinson's forehead). Otherwise, it had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and minor fold and border wear. Other than the surface paper loss, the poster was in pretty good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer linenbacked the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did little restoration to the defects described above, and none to the surface paper loss at top center (and any restorer could likely touch that area up without re-backing the poster).
