Aubrey Smith, and Florence Bates NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this movie was first released in Belgium some time during World War II, and the poster for that release measured 12" x 17" (typical of posters released there at that time, due to massive paper shortages). In 1948 or 1949, the movie was re-released, and the Belgian poster for that release measured 14" x 22" (but it appears that it was printed from the same plates as that original small poster, because the image area of the re-release poster only measures 10" x 14", with large white borders, which also explains why some of those posters show up trimmed). The main difference between the two posters is different printer information. Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good. The top blank area was folded back at one time and there are some pin holes scattered around the edges of the poster. The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition.
