Important Added Info: Note that we previously thought that the movie was first released in Austria in 1959, because that is when this "regular" program is from. But we have seen a different program that proves that it was released in 1949 through the MPEA, which distributed movies in Germany, Japan, and Austria right after World War II until 1950 (a lot of the people who went to those movies were U.S. servicemen stationed in those countries). The movie was then given its first regular release in 1959, and this program is from that first regular release. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
