Artist: Roger Soubie Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this poster, with wonderful Roger Soubie art of Clark Gable carrying Vivien Leigh over a red background. There is a second poster for this 1955 French re-release that has completely different Roger Soubie art over a green background, and we are separately auctioning that poster. The last two examples of that poster we auctioned sold for $1,200 and $1,356, but as we said, we have never auctioned this poster, so we don't know how much it will sell for! What IS linenbacking?
