Note that Marilyn Monroe had a small role in this movie, early in her career, but as usual, she was noticed, and she appears on several of the posters! 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 8th-billed Marilyn Monroe had a small part in this classic melodrama. But the person who designed the posters wisely used her face on the one-sheet image, and for this insert, chose to include a full image of her (from her key scene) at the bottom of the poster! Condition: very good. The poster was "starch backed", which means that it was moistened with a special starch solution, attached to a backing, allowed to dry, and then the poster had touch up while it was backed, and afterward, the backing was removed. This particular poster had some tiny bits of paper loss and smudges around the edges in the borders. It had minor wear on the top two folds and tiny bits of surface paper loss in the bottom foldline. It had small paper loss at the right end of the bottom foldline in the blank border, and some tiny paper loss in the blank border below it. It had a pinhole near the center of the bottom border and one in Baxter's neck at bottom left. Other than the above, the poster was in nice condition prior to starch backing. The poster was starch backed by a talented professional, who performed restoration to the above minor defects, and it now looks fantastic, and it has had truly minor touch up, and best of all, it still completely looks and feels like an unrestored poster!
