Note that this movie was naturally incredibly popular in small towns across America at this time, and in the next few years. Clever promoters would take it into a small town or city and show it for a single weekend (sometimes late night or midnight shows), and they would plaster the town with one-sheets or window cards announcing the event. It is very difficult to note which posters are from the very first release in 1937, and which ones are from the roadshow releases in the years afterwards.

The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and separation and a few tiny tears on parts of some foldlines, and some tears and smudges in the blank borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
