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 re-released by MGM in both 1948 and 1954, and it seems that the same plates were used for the two re-releases. But the 1948 re-release poster had NSS information, and the 1954 posters do not, so we believe this poster to be from 1954. Also note that the poster says "A METRO-GOLDWYN-MAYER MASTERPIECE REPRINT" at middle left. This was a terminology used by MGM at this time for some re-releases, and it has caused some collectors to be confused! This poster is the original poster from the 1954 re-release of this movie, and is NOT a "reprint"! Note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections. Condition: good. There are tape stains in the borders. There is much staining and some paper loss on the part of the back of the poster that was on the outside when it was fully folded. There are some creases and several tears along the foldlines that were on the outside when the poster was fully folded. There are some creases, smudges, and tiny tears on some foldlines, and some tiny paper loss at some crossfolds. There are some pinholes around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
