Note that this is the first film that Frank Sinatra appears in. While he is not billed on any poster that we know of, he was a member of Tommy Dorsey and His Orchestra, and this film DOES contain Frank's first film appearance (and a lobby card expert tells us that he just barely appears in one of the lobby cards!). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had small paper loss at the crossfolds and separation, tiny tears, and tiny bits of paper loss scattered down the vertical fold, with a long horizontal tear running from the bottom of the "I" of "NIGHTS" down just below the trombone slide. There was minor wear on the other folds and in the borders. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Learn More about condition grades
