Note that there is controversy about the ending of this movie! Many people say that Hitchcock intended the movie to end with Grant killing Fontaine, and that the studio insisted that he change it (to preserve Grant's positive public image), but others say that this is an urban legend, and that the movie was always intended to end the way it did!

There were many companies in the 1930s and 1940s that printed alternate posters for use by theaters. Sometimes those posters were less expensive than the regular studio posters, and they were also much in demand when a theater needed posters in a hurry, for no theater wanted to show movies without displaying posters! Condition: good to very good. There are four small 'punch' holes in the bottom border and there are many tiny pin holes scattered throughout the poster but they are not very noticeable or distracting.
