If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this one-sheet measures 28" x 41". Please do not bid on it thinking that it is 27" x 41". Also note that this poster is not a studio-issued poster. The company that printed this poster is unknown but there were many companies in the 1930s that printed alternate posters for use by theaters. Sometimes those posters were less expensive than the regular studio posters, and they were also much in demand when a theater needed posters in a hurry, for no theater wanted to show movies without displaying posters! Condition: good. There is tattering and some paper loss along the foldlines and around the edges as well as creases throughout the poster from it being oddly folded.
