If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is a much admired World War II movie (for its clever plot, the acting by its top stars, and more), and it is unusual in another way, which is that the studio created many different styles of posters, changing the image for each size of poster. Most collectors feel that this insert (or the look-alike three-sheet) has the best of the many images created for this movie! Also note that this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 insert posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 insert posters (note that most post-1970 inserts were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those inserts). Condition: very good to fine. The poster was never folded. It has a few faint scattered creases. Learn More about condition grades
