If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this Argentinean poster! It is surely from the first Argentinean release in 1937, and it has the same art as one of the U.S. one-sheets. 1930s Argentinean posters from major films are extremely rare (likely because most of the paper was destroyed during paper drive in World War II, and because most major movies were re-released in the early 1940s when the U.S. lost European distribution. Condition: fair to good. This incredibly rare poster has some stains scattered throughout and darkening on the folds, with pinholes, tears, and small paper loss on the borders. But it certainly can be "rescued" by a talented restorer, and afterwards, it will look great, but bear all of this in mind before bidding. Learn More about condition grades
