Important Added Info: Note that we don't know if this movie played in Belgium in 1942, but we think it likely did not play there until 1946, which is when it was released in France. Its size is consistent with several other very small Belgian posters that were released in that country at the end of World War II and immediately after (due to the many paper shortages), and we feel certain it is from that time, which would make it a mid-1940s first release. If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here. What IS linenbacking?
