RKO had ceased to exist at the time this movie was finally released, and Universal probably re-used old printing plates, and put their logo at the bottom, covering over the old one which explains why materials on this movie have both studios printed on them! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has the RKO logo in the lower right, but under that is "Released by UNIVERSAL-INTERNATIONAL". We believe this means that this poster was printed for the non-U.S. release of this movie.
