If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this window card (and the look-alike six-sheet) have an incredibly superior image to that of the one-sheet for this movie (the one-sheet has only a small image of Cagney in the bottom right, and this poster is everything you would want the poster to be!). Also note that this window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded.

Condition: good to very good. The blank top was trimmed off and someone either re-attached the original blank top, or re-attached a different blank top from another window card. They did this with a thick piece of tape on the back of that area and there is also some sort of restoration on the front of the area where it joins. There are some creases and smudges around the edges of the card.
