If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! Note also that this half-sheet is very old, and it would not make sense to attempt to roll it, as the paper is fragile enough that rolling it might damage it. Therefore we will send it in a large flat package. Please bear that extra shipping cost in mind BEFORE placing a bid on this poster! Note that the poster is not so fragile that it is "falling to pieces"! If it is handled carefully, it can absolutely be framed and enjoyed without any worry. Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has a few creases and tears of varying lengths around the edges (two slightly enter the image border at lower center and center right) and a few are repaired with tape from the back. There is a scratch in Hersholt's hair at right that slightly breaks the paper and is repaired with tape from the back. The image area is otherwise in pretty nice condition, especially given the poster's age (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
