If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that 8th-billed Marilyn Monroe had a small part in this classic melodrama. But the person who designed the posters wisely used her face on the one-sheet image, and for this insert, chose to include a full image of her (from her key scene) at the bottom of the poster! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Condition: good. The poster was never folded. It had pinholes, smudges, and some dot stains around the edges of the poster, with a lesser number scattered without the image, but including a 1/2" x 1" smudge in the lower right of Marilyn's face at the bottom, starting below her eye and extending into her neck. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The person who backed the poster chose to only do slight restoration to the above defects, because trying to fix them all would have given the poster a lot of restoration. As it stands, you can see clear signs of the above defects and the partial restoration of them from close up, but from a reasonable viewing distance, they are not very distracting. But please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its defects described above or are willing to pay to have additional restoration performed. Learn More about condition grades
