If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that there are two versions of this English one-sheet, both of which are "country of origin" posters for this English movie. One has "Printed in England By W.E. Berry LTD, Bradford" and the other has "Printed in Great Britain By W.E. Berry LTD, Bradford". Obviously, they were printed in two different locations, and we don't know that either predates the other. This one is the one that says "Printed in Great Britain". Also note that this poster likely originally measured 27" x 40" (or very close to that) but someone trimmed the poster in its blank borders and it now measures 26" x 39 1/2" (but the tiny printer credit at lower right is still present). Condition: fair to good. The poster had parts of its blank borders trimmed off (see above). It has ink transfer scattered through the poster with separation at the crossfolds. It has a piece of clear tape of one crossfold. Please bear the above in mind before bidding on this rare and desirable poster. Learn More about condition grades
