Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned this 1937 first release style B one-sheet once before, and that was 26 years ago, when it sold for $1,725! This style B one-sheet has a much superior image to that of the style A one-sheet!

Condition: fair to good. The poster has a printing defect, which is that the blue plate was printed slightly off register, and fortunately, this is mostly only noticeable in areas with lettering, and most of all in Irving Berlin's credit. It is not very noticeable at all in the images. The poster also has darkening in the right corners and it once had a snipe attached to the bottom left, and there are two pieces of paper glued to the poster in that area. It also had separation at the crossfolds and has tape on the back of each, with a few pieces of tape on areas of the folds where there was separation. There are pinholes around the edges. The poster is in better condition than the above makes it sound, as can be verified by looking at our image! Surely, a talented restorer can back the poster, and during that process, perform restoration to as much of the above as the new owner desires, and afterwards, it will display really well. But please bear in mind its defects described above and look closely at our super-sized image before bidding on this great poster.
