If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we always knew this classic James Cagney was re-released during World War II when Warner Bros' top stars were away at war, and they re-released a lot of their classics from the 1930s. But in the past, collectors had told us that this re-release was from 1942. However, we have auctioned the re-release pressbook, which displays all those re-release posters, and it is clearly dated "1944", so it was 1944 when they re-released this movie, which is why we know this item to be from 1944!

Condition: good. light discoloration and rippling throughout the poster from exposure to moisture; slightly diagonal creases and some tears along the foldlines from the poster being folded somewhat off-center as well as creases, smudges, and scuffs throughout the poster; separation and some paper loss at each crossfold and at some of the ends of the foldlines (some repaired with tape from the back); tack holes around the edges of the poster with some 3" and smaller tears from rough removal (again, some repaired with tape from the back)
