Artist: Osvaldo Venturi Important Added Info: Note that an advanced collector of Argentinean posters tells us that this poster (and other Argentinean posters from Guaranteed Pictures) are not from 1943 (which is below the company name in the lower left corner), but are actually from the mid-to-late 1940s, and that they are all re-releases. The reason some people have dated them to 1943 comes from seeing it on the poster, but that is actually part of the company's street address! Guaranteed Pictures made a deal to re-release a number of classic 1930s movies in the mid 1940s, and they produced posters for those re-releases, each with great entirely new art by the wonderful Argentinean poster artist, Osvaldo Venturi.
