Note that the posters we have seen from this movie (one-sheets and three-sheets) have the words "Victor White Ambulance Driver" printed in a lower corner of the image, and we have seen two posters (one one-sheet and one three-sheet) that had a snipe glued over the "Victor White" that says "VICTOR TARDIEU". Victor Tardieu was a French artist who volunteered for service in World War I and worked as a medical orderly. We imagine that this art was attributed to him along with a note about his duties, but somehow his last name was changed. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

It had pinholes, tears, and faint stains around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. Someone simply backed the poster onto a very thin linen with no restoration and no excess linen (it could be either displayed as it is, or any restorer could remove it from the thin linen and properly linenback it).
