Important Added Info: Note that this re-release poster appears to have been printed from the exact same plates as the original, but with different coloring. Often, two color re-releases are disappointing, but many find this orange and black design very striking, given the iconic sexy smoking image of Rita against a black background. And this poster (which was made only four years after the original release) is certainly an attractive alternative to the gazillion dollar original 1946 release poster with the same image! Also note that the poster says "A COLUMBIA REPRINT" in the lower right corner. This was a terminology used by Columbia Pictures at this time for some re-releases, and it has caused some collectors to be confused! This poster is the original poster from the 1950 re-release of this movie, and is NOT a "reprint"! What IS linenbacking?
