This is such a great movie and one I have watched over the last several Xmas holiday seasons.
The actress is Ann Sheridan and the film title is The Man Who Came to Dinner, released in 1942, and also starring the fantastic Monte Wo… -
The bold presence of Raft's name is key, as Hondo mentioned.
Perhaps making it a (locally made) late 1930s/early1940's re-release poster.
(And I'd still like to know if it's actually 28" wide? Or 27)

107 - Wake Island from 1942
108 - ?
109- Submarine X-1 from 1968

You should inform Emovie, so they can update or correct their database information.
The question then also becomes: How did Emovie identify this daybill as a probable 1970's re-release, theatrical poster?
Could it possi… -
Nice looking poster, and it's a re-release poster (from both the title & the wording, "the year's smash hit..."), maybe this was a local poster made for a screening later in 1932 in some city or town. Scarface initially opened on April 9, 1932, …

This (described as 1970s) RR daybill for Son of Frankenstein has some major identity crisis issues going on. It is for Son Of, as the right director (Rowland V Lee) is credited. But an image of Lon Chaney Jr as the Monster (from Ghost Of), as well a…

The question was asked tongue in cheek. I wasn't being literal.

Being a one armed man would make him so.

(Quote) The title on this daybill is "minorly" wrong, too. The original release title (House of Frankenstein) did not include the word "The" in the title, but even some of the US material (the insert) from the first release made the same mistake:<…

Was he armless in the movie??

Richardson sure had a way and style. Many were pure works of art.

Back when Renee was still Renee.

One question: Are you sure the width is 28 inches? A typical onesheet poster from that era was usually 27" wide.
And with this poster being all text (blue and red), along with no images, no director's name etc, I would wager a guess that … -
(Quote) In looking at the kind of shapeless body form given to Gable here, what was the artist thinking, I wonder? The movie, Altered States with William Hurt, was decades away from being made. Look at his right side and arm.

Emovie certainly "scored" with this stash of consigned posters, thats for sure.
-
Aside from it being a later RR poster, the almost bigger question is: Given it is likely a later re-release, capitalizing on Monroe's growing fame and star quality, how is it that she was given NO credit on this daybill??

The bottom figure looks like an equally "scary" Wolf Man. Is Jimmy Durante under the fur in that image?
-
An Affair To Remember daybill (this could have been done MUCH better, considering the nice artwork that done & used on the AU one sheet. (Emovie, tho, does describe this as a stock poster):

And with an estimated value of $100-200?
Ugh!

Did Edna's legs ever look that good?

Just a thought and suggestion: Might be helpful to always show the complete poster, once the correct guess has been made.
Here is the full daybill image for The Neptune Factor:in The Science Fiction Quiz Comment by papergatherer July 2016

I can't think of anyone that would want it, either.

I was thinking Dame Edna too, when I saw that "sexy" leg shot. LOL
It's from Les Patterson Saves The World from 1987.in Actresses Legs Quiz Comment by papergatherer July 2016

Here you go.
Aside from it being in color, it isnt too too much better than the one shown above. Poor Charlton Heston is missing his left arm on both examples.in Worst artwork Comment by papergatherer July 2016

The monster looks a little bit like an overweight Elvis, who is wearing a black turtleneck sweater.

Ghost of Frankenstein daybill. (image c/o John Reid and moviemem.com)
So it looks like there is possibly no excuse, but maybe it was haste or laziness (?), as was suggested.
And what's with the Monster's blonde, … -
I think it highly unlikely that Universal did not give any kind of publicity imagery to the AU artists (stills, US PB, or other materials) from which they could create a proper and correct daybill. Since SO much about it is wrong, it seems the artis…

Thanks for the PB image Hondo. I overlooked it on EMP when i did my first search.
