Kerrigan, Grant Withers, Ben Welden, Duncan Renaldo, and Adele Mara (uncredited as Twinkles Tucker the Jitterbugger). Note that the Seabees were members of the United States Navy who were assigned to the Construction Battalion, and were called "C.B.", which was corrupted to "Seabees"! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster is extremely rare! We have only auctioned it four times before, first in 2004, when it auctioned for $1,275, then in 2016, when it auctioned for $1,375, then in 2021 (in "good" condition) when it auctioned for $880, and finally in 2023 (in "very good" condition) when it auctioned for $985. Perhaps this poster is so rare because the movie was re-released quickly in 1948 and then at least two times in the 1950s, and those re-releases probably used up whatever first release paper still remained. Condition: good to very good. The poster has four small pieces of paper tape, each one attached to one of the blank corners. It has small separation at each crossfold with tiny paper loss at the top crossfold. It has creases along the folds and some creases and small tears around the edges. Half of the top blank border was folded back at one time. After a simple linenbacking this poster will display wonderfully! Learn More about condition grades
