Important Added Info: Note that this wonderful 2-page ad was removed from an issue of "The Exhibitor's Monthly", an exhibitor magazine that was printed in Australia when this movie first came out. There is printing on the reverse side of the ad, but we don't picture it, because it is surely of little interest. But this fantastic ad can be matted or framed for little money and makes a great inexpensive display that would rival most posters on the movie! Condition: very good. The pages were removed from a magazine. They were joined along the center. There is some very minor wear on that center area. Otherwise, the pages are in nice condition!
