Maturo Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this one-sheet, and only one example in the last 28 years! Also, note that this poster was one of the posters found in the legendary Royal Theatre Collection, in Canada over 40 years ago. This was the most amazing find of 1930s and 1940s posters ever, because not only were most in remarkable condition (most with paper that was as white as when it was printed), but also because it contained many of the best titles of those years, and there were many thousands of posters and lobby cards in all. Despite these having been sold over 40 years ago, many of these posters have rarely again been offered for sale or at auction. The poster offered here was purchased from the Royal Theatre Collection!
UPDATED 02/17/2020: Note that we have updated the Important Added Info section. Condition: very good to fine. The poster has a tack hole in each corner. Otherwise, it has very minor fold and border wear and is in really nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
