If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that when this movie was first released in 1940, Dana Andrews was pretty unknown, and was billed third, even though he had a co-starring role. In 1947, after his great success in "The Best Years of Our Lives", this movie was re-released with an image of him above the title and the tagline "Thrill to Dana Andrews' greatest role"! Just four years later, in 1951, the movie was re-released again, and by now Andrews' star had faded enough that they went back to the original poster image highlighting Jon Hall in the title role!
