Kerrigan, Grant Withers, Ben Welden, Duncan Renaldo, and Adele Mara (uncredited as Twinkles Tucker the Jitterbugger). Note that the Seabees were members of the United States Navy who were assigned to the Construction Battalion, and were called "C.B.", which was corrupted to "Seabees"! 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: Note that this poster is extremely rare! We have only auctioned it three times before, once in 2004, when it auctioned for $1,275, once in 2016, when it auctioned for $1,375, and in 2021 (in "good" condition) when it auctioned for $880. Perhaps this poster is so rare because the movie was re-released quickly in 1948 and then at least two times in the 1950s, and those re-releases probably used up whatever first release paper still remained. Condition: very good. There is tiny separation and tinier paper loss at the crossfolds with just a few small tears on parts of the folds and in the borders (see our image).
