If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster LOOKS similar to the U.S. poster, but actually, it is a stone litho re-creation of the U.S. poster. That is not normal for "Spanish/U.S." posters like these, but in this case, they did something very unusual, which was to take the image from the Argentinean poster, and put it on this poster (it even includes the Argentinean credit at lower right, but it clearly says "LITHO IN U.S.A." in the lower left). What an unusual poster! Note that this one-sheet was printed in the United States for use at theaters with Spanish speaking audiences (this was done most by MGM, starting in the 1930s, but it was done by the other major studios as well, and often the posters would have the exact same image as the English language poster, except the writing would be in Spanish, and on posters from the 1930s and 1940s there would be an added "Toda en Espanol!", meaning "Entirely in Spanish!", printed within the image). Sometimes posters from the 1960s or later will have the word "SPANISH" printed in the bottom border (or sometimes stamped on the back of the poster). Condition: good. The poster has pinholes and tears around the edges, with some smudges and stains scattered throughout the poster. There was paper loss in the top right background area, and someone put tape on the back of that, and did amateur restoration to it. There are also some pinholes scattered throughout the poster and someone put small pieces of tape on the back of those and some of the border defects. Learn More about condition grades
