Artist: Luigi Martinati Important Added Info: Note that the IMDb says this movie was released in Italy in 1939, and because it is dated 1948, we are calling it a re-release. But we have never seen a 1939 Italian poster, and if it was released there in that year, then those posters would surely be incredibly rare (or non-existent). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. UPDATED 03/22/2012: Note that the yellow and red colors on this poster are printed off-register. We did not initially note this in the Condition details. Based on this, we have adjusted the Condition Grade to "fair". Condition: fair. The poster is fragile and has separation, tears, and some tiny paper loss on parts of many foldlines. The poster is in urgent need of expert professional restoration. The yellow and red colors on this poster are printed off-register which will make restoration rather complicated. But the poster is mostly "all there", and after linenbacking and restoration by a talented professional, the poster will look fantastic. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its defects described above or are willing to pay to have them properly restored! Learn More about condition grades
