Note that MGM normally made two different styles of one-sheets for each of their movies from the mid 1930s to the mid 1940s, and they were normally labeled style C and style D. For unknown reasons, there are four different first release one-sheets for this movie, and two of them are labeled style C and style D, and another one has "1SHT.BLOCK" stamped on the back, and the fourth one has "1SHT. SPECIAL" stamped on the back, and we are not sure why they made these two additional one-sheets. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been trimmed and it now measures 20" x 28" [51 x 71 cm]. Note that this item needs to be shipped in an oversized flat package. Some of these items can ONLY be sent in flat packages, and could not possibly be rolled into a tube. On some of them (for example f it is a size that might ordinarily be rolled in a tube, like a half-sheet), the reason it is in this auction is specifically because we feel it either CAN'T be rolled or because we feel it would be a mistake to roll it, because it might well damage the item. In the case of the few items that could be rolled, we will roll the item in a tube if the new owner insists, but only if they accept that they can't return the item if it is damaged from being rolled. So please bear in mind that this item must be sent in a LARGE flat package (the size of the package will depend on the size of the item), and bear this added expense in mind before placing a bid on it. Condition: poor to fair. The card has darkened throughout. It has a total of 2" trimmed from the left and right, which affects the right of the image and the end of the tagline. There are also water stains in the lower right and some other stains around the edges. Obviously, this poster can be restored, but bear in mind its condition and the cost of restoration before placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
