If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that the poster is undated, but it has a litho number, and comparing this number to our massive database of litho numbers taken from actual movie posters, we can determine that this poster is almost certainly from 1945! Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and the restorer did a good job, but you can see signs of the restoration from inches away (since most people look at posters framed on a wall from at least a few feet away, we don't feel this is a defect, but we feel it should be noted). See below for this poster's pre-restoration condition (we are the only major auction company we know of that shares this information with our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). very good. Note that this is an early 1940s re-release poster, but the only way it is identified as such is that the words "A Re-Release" were added to the original printing plates under the title. At some point prior to linenbacking someone taped over those words. The person who linenbacked the poster removed the tape, but it had wiped out the words underneath, so the restorer tried to match that area to the background, although it is still somewhat noticeable, but not distracting. Otherwise the poster had small paper loss on some foldlines and at some crossfolds. It had minor smudges and creases throughout, as well as some tears on some foldlines and some border defects, including pinholes in the corners. At some point after linenbacking, the poster was water stained in the back of the poster at the back of the upper left corner. It is noticeable from the back of the linen, but barely noticeable from the front of the poster. Learn More about condition grades
