If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that the poster is undated, but it has a litho number, and comparing this number to our massive database of litho numbers taken from actual movie posters, we can determine that this poster is certainly from 1941! It most likely is from the end of 1941, because it makes perfect sense that Warner Bros. would re-release this right after Pearl Harbor (with the tagline "Brought back - because it's great!"), because the U.S. entering World War II made this movie much more relevant (but they "cheated" with these 1941 re-release posters, and put the pilots in World War II planes with enclosed cockpits, whereas in the movie they are in World War I prop planes with open cockpits! Of course, the following year, after Warner Bros.' top stars enlisted in the military, they started re-releasing their top 1930s hits (to make up for lack of new product), but this 1941 re-release predates that.
