If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster has full-bleed borders on the left and right and has NOT been trimmed. This was done by RKO with their daybills from the middle to late 1940s. Advanced Australian collectors tell us that this is how all the daybills of this title were created. Please do not bid on this daybill thinking that it has been trimmed as it certainly was not.

Condition: good to very good. There is a tiny dot of paper loss in the center of the bottom foldline, and faint staining on the back of the left of the bottom foldline that slightly shows through to the front. Otherwise, the poster is in pretty good condition!
