If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has an image of Kim Novak as she appeared in this movie. In 1961, she had shortened her hair to a completely different style, and when this movie was re-released that year, the poster had a very similar image to that of this original. But bizarrely, they changed her hairdo on the re-release poster that new shorter hairstyle, even though she did not wear it in the actual movie! Also note that this poster has never been machine folded! Most insert posters were folded twice horizontally right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded example of most insert posters, especially from before 1970! Condition: good to very good. There are a few 2" and smaller tears around the edges of the poster that have been repaired with tape from the back. There are some creases and smudges throughout the poster (mostly around the edges). Learn More about condition grades
