NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that it is extremely fortunate that the designer of this poster chose to go largely with a romantic image of Jon Hall and cult actress Frances Farmer, and pretty much ignored top-billed star Victor McLaglen! This three-sheet was printed in 2 sections. Note that the theater that used this poster taped the two pieces together before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used three-sheets). Condition: fair. There are many tears and some areas of paper loss on some foldlines, more so on the ones that were on the outside when the poster was fully folded (most specifically the foldlines in the top right corner of the poster). There is paper loss in the bottom right corner. There are tape stains in the area where the two sections of the poster were joined together, and there are some water stains scattered in the poster. The entire poster is fragile and is in urgent need of expert professional restoration, but once it is properly linenbacked, it will look fantastic! Learn More about condition grades
