If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned this poster one time, and that was 6 years ago. The person who purchased that from us then has re-consigned it now, so it is still the ONLY example of this poster we have ever auctioned. Also note that this is not the regular release U.S. three-sheet. Apparently, in the late 1930s and early 1940s, 20th Century-Fox started having greater distribution outside the U.S., and on their top titles, they printed separate "international style" one-sheets and three-sheets. They look similar to the regular release posters, but they have less fine detail (but in the case of this international three-sheet, we have never seen the regular release three-sheet, so we have nothing to compare it to, but it is similar to the international one-sheet, which we have sold previously).

The poster had small paper loss at some crossfolds and some creases, tears, and tiny paper loss on parts of some foldlines. Overall, the poster was in good to very 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.
