Note that this movie has been confused with the 1956 Canadian documentary movie of the same name (including by us!), but we don't believe the two movies are connected. Also note that there is a strong possibility that this 1950 movie was not first made in 1950, but that it might be a re-titling, and perhaps re-editing, of almost any of the 1930s and 1940s sexploitation/crime movies (one strong possibility is the 1943 crime movie "Confessions of a Vice Baron", because the IMDb says it was re-released under the title of "Skid Row")! If anyone knows more about this movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that there is a strong possibility that this poster is not from the 1956 movie described above. We have entered it as that movie, because that one actually IS called "Skid Row". Certainly, this is a title that could have been used for almost any of the 1930s to 1950s sexploitation/crime movies (one strong possibility is the 1943 crime movie "Confessions of a Vice Baron")! If anyone knows more about this poster or what movie it is from, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this one-sheet measures 28 1/2" x 41". What IS linenbacking?
