  Quite understandable! The snipe has been painstakingly removed for your edification.

  In answer to Mark's question, it is very unusual indeed to have the text printed in German. I guess they just copied the poster directly from the German poster but not sure why they couldn't have translated the text to English -possibly just laziness. I cant think of any other posters that have text in another language but maybe Lawrence might know of something.

  John is right as one can see the German poster above I have posted has been copied directly to the Australian daybill version. Why is anyones guess. The English dialogue caption is interesting though. The only other daybill I noticed many years ago was a daybill of an English language film with text printed in Italian which I cannot remember the name of. Thinking The Guns Of Navarone or even Barabbas but I cannot really remember. Someone had mentioned it had been printed especially for the large Italian population in Australia when the Ilalian language version was screened here .
