If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have been told that the artist behind this poster is likely Mario Zamparelli, who created many posters for RKO in the 1950s. However, while the poster resembles his style, we cannot be certain. If anyone has definitive proof of who the artist is, please e-mail us. Condition: good to very good. The poster has slight discoloration scattered along the back of the upper quarter. It is not very noticeable on front except in the blank borders and title area (see our image). It has tiny pen scribbles at lower left in the blank corner and some edge wear, with a few creases along portions of the folds (more so the vertical foldline). This is the kind of poster that responds really well to restoration. It is likely that the few faint stains can be removed chemically, and linenbacking the poster will display quite well, although certainly many collectors could choose to display the poster as is.
