If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that for this 1954 re-release, MGM added an image of Denise Darcel in the center right, with the tagline "The picture that introduced Denise Darcel", but actually, she had appeared in two movies prior to this! Also note that this poster has never been machine folded! Most half-sheet posters were folded once horizontally and once vertically right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded example of most half-sheets, especially from before 1970!

Condition: good to very good.
