Note that this is the movie with the classic scene showing Gravet and Miliza Korjus (playing a woman Strauss had a long affair with, and in real life she was an opera singer who only appeared in a couple of movies) riding in the Vienna woods in a carriage and composing the classic "Tales of the Vienna Woods" off of the sounds they hear around them!

Important Added Info: Note that the poster says "AN MGM MASTERPIECE REPRINT" in the bottom center. This was a terminology used by MGM at this time for some re-releases, and it has caused some collectors to be confused! This one-sheet is the original one-sheet from the 1946 re-release of this movie, and is NOT a "reprint"! Condition: fair. There are areas of separation and small paper loss along the foldlines (some repaired with tape from the back). There is writing on the back of the poster that slightly bleeds through to the front throughout. Learn More about condition grades
