Note that male lead John Lodge has an interesting background! He came from an important New England family (his grandfather was William Henry Cabot Lodge), and he shocked them by becoming a movie actor! He appeared in a couple dozen movies between 1932 and 1940. He quit the movies to serve in World War II, and afterwards, in 1946, he became the second major movie actor ever to hold national political office, serving as a Congressman (the first was Helen Gahagan Douglas). In 1950, he became Governor of Connecticut, and later, he served as ambassador to several countries! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. There are a few water stains on the back of the top and bottom foldlines, and some of them slightly show through to the front. There is a piece of tape on the back of the top and middle crossfolds, and two pieces of tape on the back of part of the top quarter of the vertical foldline. The tape on the back of the top crossfold has strongly bled through to the front. The poster has the above very clear defects, but certainly, any talented restorer can remove the tape and linenback the poster, and after proper restoration, the poster will look great, and it will not require much paint restoration, except for the overpainting of the tape stain at the top crossfold.
