Huntley. Note that this was the first full-length feature filmed in Three-Strip Technicolor! Also note that three weeks after filming began on this movie with Lowell Sherman, he caught pneumonia and died, and Rouben Mamoulian was hired to take over, and he chose to scrap the film shot by Sherman during his three weeks on the job, so it is entirely a Mamoulian directed film, even though Sherman was co-credited (out of respect for his passing).

Artist: Norman McMurray Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good to fine. There is a small semi-circular tear and a few faint stains in the middle of the left black background area, and some smudges in the right of the title, but otherwise, the poster is in pretty nice condition!
