Warner, George Zucco, Donald MacBride, and Rafaela Ottiano 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: This three-sheet was printed in 2 sections. Note that the theater that used this poster taped the two pieces together before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used three-sheets). Also note that this three-sheet measures 41" x 71 1/4". Please do not bid on it thinking that it is 41" x 81". Condition: fair. The poster has significant paper loss in the top left of the title area, and there are light brown water stains scattered throughout the poster. The bottom section of the poster was taped to the top section with a few pieces of tape. Clearly, this poster has VERY significant defects, but it is also true that it is likely the only surviving example of this poster, and it is fortunate that the area of paper loss is somewhat easily re-created, since it is solely lettering and red background. If the water stains can be removed through chemical means, then this poster will not require much paint restoration except in the area of paper loss, and it will look great after proper linenbacking and restoration!
