When a sailor's left holding the baby!"; "It all starts when a sailor is left holding the baby!"; "John Mills, Richard Attenborough, Lisa Gastoni in the rollicking nautical comedy!"; "Based on the novel by Anthony Thorne") starring John Mills, Richard Attenborough, Lisa Gastoni, Andre Morell, Bryan Forbes, and Martyn Garrett (in the title role as the baby)

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been machine folded! Most half-sheet posters were folded once horizontally and once vertically right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded example of most half-sheets, especially from before 1970!

Condition: very good to fine. Note that the poster has a very minor printing defect, which is a series of faint light blue and red lines down the left edge of the left blank border. This was a very minor printing defect that occurred during the printing of these half-sheets, and it is found on many 1950s and early 1960s half-sheets, and few collectors consider it much of a defect at all, because it is in the left edge of the blank border, has no effect on the image, and would likely be on all examples of this half-sheet.
