Note that Preston Sturges wanted this movie called "Is Marriage Necessary?", but the Production Code Office vetoed that! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that first release movie paper from this classic Preston Sturges movie is extremely rare (perhaps because it was released during World War II, when there were paper shortages). We have never before auctioned this one-sheet! Condition: very good. The poster was lightly folded in half an extra time. There was tiny separation at the crossfolds and small separation at the ends of a few folds. It had tiny pinholes in the corners. Otherwise, the poster is in pretty nice condition!
