Or murderess?"; "Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's great production"; "Based upon the book by I.A.R. Wylie"; about a journalist who wants to write a book about a war hero who died in a car crash, but when he starts to investigate, and talks to the man's widow, he discovers that the man was not what he seemed to be, and he wonders if the wife was involved in the crash and if it was accidental) starring Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn, Richard Whorf, Margaret Wycherly, Forrest Tucker, Frank Craven, Stephen McNally (billed as "Horace McNally"), Percy Kilbride, Darryl Hickman, and Donald Meek 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 this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It had a very few creases and faint smudges scattered in the image (but very few in the stars' faces). There were creases, smudges, tears, and some paper loss around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was nicely backed, but the paperbacker did not do any restoration to the defects in the blank borders, likely rightfully assuming they will not show when the poster is framed.
