Aubrey Smith, John Clements, June Duprez, and Allan Jeayes. Note that June Duprez became a major star in England after the release of Alexander Korda's "The Thief of Bagdad" in 1940. She went to Hollywood, but her agent thought she was a major star and wanted $50,000 per movie for her, and that priced her out of the market, so she only made a handful of movies. She then acted on Broadway for a while, and then married and returned to England. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

UPDATED 07/11/2021: Note that the Auction Title originally had an incorrect date. This poster is from the first release in 1939. Condition: fair to good. The poster was folded down the middle at one time by hand. It has tears, smudges, stains and tiny areas of surface paper loss around the edges with a few small bits scattered in the image. Someone put tape on the back of all of the above but otherwise did not restoration. In spite of these defects, the poster displays pretty well as it is, and of course professional restoration can be performed, but bear all of this in mind and look at our super-sized image before placing a bid.
