If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this Argentinean poster! The poster includes an image of a tiny lady in a test tube, and we have not seen the movie, but we can't find any reference to a scene like this in it! Was it just something the poster artist added? Also note that the unknown Argentinean poster designer clearly got confused when drawing the credits, because actor Sidney Blackmer somehow became the director, displacing George Sherman!
