Important Added Info: Note that we have no clue where this cool poster came from, because it has Spanish writing on it, but it clearly has "Printed in U.S.A." in the bottom right. It seems likely that it was printed in the U.S.A. for use in places with Spanish speaking audiences (perhaps Mexico and South America), but it is an odd size. Perhaps it was once in some sort of magazine, but if so, it likely had no printing on the back, because you can't see any sign of it when you hold the poster to the light. If anyone knows more about where this poster was used and where it came from, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept the uncertainty as to its origin and that it is printed in Spanish.

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair to good. The poster was folded across the middle, with many creases along that fold. It had creases in the dress near Hayworth's waist, and a stain in her arm, extending into the dress. It had creases and scuffs scattered in the black background areas. Overall, the poster was in fair condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
