Important Added Info: Note that it is possible that this poster is from the first release of this movie in 1937, but we think it is more likely to be from a 1940s re-release. It has an MGM logo on it that we have seen on other Spanish/U.S. 1940s re-release items. If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this one-sheet measures 27 1/4" x 41 1/4" [69 x 105 cm]. Also note that this one-sheet was printed in the United States for use at theaters with Spanish speaking audiences (this was done most by MGM, starting in the 1930s, but it was done by the other major studios as well, and often the posters would have the exact same image as the English language poster, except the writing would be in Spanish, and on posters from the 1930s and 1940s there would be an added "Toda en Espanol!", meaning "Entirely in Spanish!", printed within the image). Sometimes posters from the 1960s or later will have the word "SPANISH" printed in the bottom border (or sometimes stamped on the back of the poster). Condition: good to very good. There is separation in some of the crossfolds. There are a few diagonal creases scattered in various areas throughout the poster. It is otherwise in generally nice condition.
