Henry Gordon, George Raft (as Guino Rinaldo, Tony's best friend), Vince Barnett, and Boris Karloff (the movie was made before Frankenstein, but released after Frankenstein, and United Artists saw Karloff's great success in that movie, and they were able to make most, but not all, of the first release posters bill him as "Boris 'Frankenstein' Karloff"). Finally, note that there was a Brian De Palma remake of this movie in 1983, with Al Pacino in the lead role (and the lead characters are no longer Italians, but are Cuban).

Each has either four pages of six pages, and are from the Paramount Theatre Leeds, and they have really cool illustrated ads for classic movies! This is a very affordable way to get a first release ad from a classic movie, which you will likely never see offered anywhere again. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
