Also note that this movie was originally filmed in 1946, but it was not released in the U.S. at that time. It was finally released in France in December 1947, and at that time, U.S. posters were printed with 1947 NSS numbers, but it did not finally open in the U.S. until 1948!

Important Added Info: Note that the poster designer for this Australian poster was apparently so taken by Miss Hayworth's beauty, that he mis-spelled star Orson Welles' name as "Orson Wells"! Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and the restorer did a good job, but you can see signs of the restoration from inches away (since most people look at posters framed on a wall from at least a few feet away, we don't feel this is a defect, but we feel it should be noted). See below for this poster's pre-restoration condition (we are the only major auction company we know of that shares this information with our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). very good. The poster had wear on the foldlines. It had slightly tattered blank borders, which have had very expert restoration, and the poster looks great! Learn More about condition grades
