If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that the Italian typesetter who laid out this poster apparently was not familiar with Barbara Stanwyck (or perhaps he was very hungry), because he set her name as Barbara "Stanwich"! Also note that this Italian two-panel was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap.

Condition: good. There are tears, darkening, and paper loss on parts of some folds, including the one that goes down the center of Stanwyck's face.
