Stone, Addison Richards, Joe Sawyer, and Fred Kohler 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 we always knew this classic James Cagney was re-released during World War II when Warner Bros' top stars were away at war, and they re-released a lot of their classics from the 1930s. But in the past, collectors had told us that this re-release was from 1942. However, we have auctioned the re-release pressbook, which displays all those re-release posters, and it is clearly dated "1944", so it was 1944 when they re-released this movie, which is why we know this item to be from 1944! This three-sheet was printed in 2 sections. Note that the theater that used this poster glued the two pieces together before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used three-sheets). Condition: fair to good. The entire poster has darkened and is fragile. There are many creases, several tears, and some areas of paper loss along several foldlines. There are some creases, smudges, and tiny tears on some foldlines, and some paper loss at some crossfolds. Learn More about condition grades
