Note that this movie was made during World War II, when Russia was our ally, and Hollywood was doing its part to help promote positive Russian/U.S. relations, but just a few years later, the HUAAC used movies like this as examples of how Hollywood was controlled by "Communists"! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some fine surface paper loss on some foldlines. There was a 1" tear in the red background in the left of the middle foldline. There were some creases and tiny tears around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer linenbacked the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not at all distracting (and any restorer could easily touch them up without re-backing the poster).
