Out of the Past (released in other English-speaking countries as "Build My Gallows High"), the classic 1947 Jacques Tourneur romantic love triangle revenge crime film noir thriller ("A Man - Trying to run away from his past... A Woman - Trying to escape her future!" "'Don't try to get rid of me for another woman... ...it won't work!"'; based on the novel 'Build My Gallows High' by Daniel Mainwaring; a great story of a private investigator who is hired by a gangster to find his missing mistress, and he does so, but then he falls for her, and starts a romance with her, even though he knows he is likely signing his death warrant) starring Robert Mitchum, Jane Greer, Kirk Douglas (in his third movie role!), Rhonda Fleming, Richard Webb, Steve Brodie, Dickie Moore, Virginia Huston, Paul Valentine, and Ken Niles

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that after Kirk Douglas achieved great success in the early 1950s, this classic film noir movie was re-released to theaters in 1953, and Kirk Douglas was given deservedly equal billing to the other three stars in the credits, and his image was added to the bottom of the posters. Certainly, posters from this very early re-release are at least as scarce as those from the original release, and maybe even more difficult to find! Also note that this poster was machine folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good. Note that there are two 1 1/2" x 8" pieces of paper tape on the back of the upper and middle center of the poster, but they were not put there for any restoration purpose. There are several pieces of tape on the back of the lower part of the right border, that were put there to mend tears, and one piece has bled through to the front in two places, and another piece has very slightly bled through to the front. Overall, the poster is in pretty good condition, and certainly, if it were restored, it would look wonderful!
