If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this one-sheet measures 28" x 41" [71 x 104 cm]. Also note that this one-sheet was printed in the United States for use at theaters with Spanish speaking audiences (this was done most by MGM, starting in the 1930s, but it was done by the other major studios as well, and often the posters would have the exact same image as the English language poster, except the writing would be in Spanish, and on posters from the 1930s and 1940s there would be an added "Toda en Espanol!", meaning "Entirely in Spanish!", printed within the image). Sometimes posters from the 1960s or later will have the word "SPANISH" printed in the bottom border (or sometimes stamped on the back of the poster). Condition: good. The poster was folded somewhat oddly, resulting in much border, crossfold and edge damage. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid.
