If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that Cuban posters from the 1960s and earlier are incredibly scarce! American movies were shown there until some time after the Castro revolution, and then they were not. It seems that the posters from those American movies were likely all trashed (or possibly recycled). This is one of a group of super rare Cuban posters from U.S. movies that we were consigned. All of them have varying degrees of condition issues, but one can't afford to quibble about that, because it is amazing just that they have survived at all!

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had tiny tears and small paper loss in the top half of the vertical fold and in the top horizontal fold. It had a lesser amount of wear on the other folds. It had an L-shaped tear in the bottom right of the image, extending into the soldier on the left. It had some tears and areas of paper loss around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
