The Way to the Stars (released in the U.S. as "Johnny in the Clouds"), the 1945 Anthony Asquith English World War II (WWII) airplane aviation military melodrama ("They had no right to kiss...to love...to be together at all"; "Sure I'm from Brooklyn - so what? It may take a little time to get used to me, but then you won't be able to get along without me."; "Thrills in the sky! and romance below..."; "Sky-high entertainment") starring Michael Redgrave, John Mills, Rosamund John, Douglass Montgomery, Stanley Holloway, and Jean Simmons (in a tiny role as "a singer")

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that when this movie was first released in 1945, Jean Simmons was a 16 year-old who had started acting at 14, but who only had minor parts, and she was not billed or shown on the original 1945 daybill. But when the movie was re-released in Australia in the 1950s, she was given third billing and an image on the daybill, which was extremely deceptive, to say the least!

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster was slightly discolored. There were tiny tears and paper loss along the foldlines, and the paper loss in the right of the bottom foldline fell in Mills' eye. Overall, the poster was in 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.
