We have never auctioned this style B version (printed by RKO - see above) in all our years of auctioning! Note also that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters. Condition: very good. The poster has slightly darkened around the edges and it has a few faint smudges in small portions of the borders. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and it displays well!
