Miller (Flourney E. Miller), Spencer Williams, The Four Tones, and the Four Blackbirds. Note that Flourney Miller was a major figure in black Broadway musical history, performing and writing with his partner Aubrey Lyles.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that Toddy Pictures re-released this movie in the late 1940s (likely in 1948), and they produced two different one-sheets for the movie, one featuring Herb Jeffries, and one featuring Mantan Moreland (it is possible that those two one-sheets are from two different Toddy re-releases). If anyone knows more about this movie or its re-releases, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

Condition: good. There is some tattering and staining along the foldlines and edges of the poster (mostly around the edges).
