NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a large group of trade ads we are currently auctioning, all of which were removed from exhibitor magazines or studio yearbooks. These are far more rare than ads removed from regular movie magazines (because those were sold to the general public, whereas exhibitor magazines and studio yearbooks were ONLY sent to theater owners). Often, these trade ads have completely different images from the posters the studios created, both because they were aimed at a different market, and they were often prepared prior to the movie's actual release, so they might have something different about them! Many of these may not have been printed in any other form since this ad was first printed (and unless otherwise indicated above, it is from when the movie was first released, usually slightly in advance of the movie's actual release). Note that the back of this page has text or an ad for other movies from that time, and we have not pictured that back page because the primary interest to bidders is the ad we have pictured. Condition: good to very good. The trade ad was removed from a magazine (see above). Learn More about condition grades
