If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that this classic Chaplin short was re-issued (with the slightly changed title of "In The Bank") and it was "Conformed to Sound Speed" and had "Music and Sound Effects". RKO (through its Van Beuren subsidiary) had a similar series of Chaplin re-releases in 1932, and in 1939, a different company bought the rights to the Essanay Chaplins, and re-released a few of them with music and sound added as RKO had. In 1940 exactly, they changed their name to "King of Comedy Film Corp." and re-released ten of the Essanays, and this one was one of those ten 1940 re-releases.

Condition: good. The poster is somewhat brittle an there is a large tear at lower left and top center and there is tattering and some separation along the foldlines (most repaired with tape from the back). Fortunately, the poster is mostly 'all there' and if one chose to have it linenbacked it would look great!
