Spotted this one in the late 50s early 60s era series Marvelous Mrs. Maisel set in New York City. Facebook guys didn’t give it any love… Hint: there are at least two problems here…
You will notice on the extremely rare original release daybill the positioning of Liz's hand is exactly the same as on the image in question. The 1966 daybill Liz is giving us the finger.
I believe the poster under review is almost all the same artwork as the original Australian 1961 first release poster, with one small addition and two positioning of image changes.
All that Heaven Allows - Universal - Intenational instead of International, and MAGNICENT OBSESSION, instead of MAGNIFICENT, which is weird because they got it right JUST above!

They also messed up Agnes Moorehead's name
You have it. Three mistakes in one Australian daybill must be a record.
I have always thought the poster artists at F. Cunninghame were a lot worse than those at Robert Burton, and here is a great example to support this.
Just realised that I had forgotten the fact that previously this poster's fault was spoken about when included by me on another of the forum threads. The Love God? ( 1969 ) U.S.A. lobby card was used in Australia. The censorship stamp should have been the Not Suitable For Children one.
Are you referring to "Blake Films present" as a grammatical error? If so, it is probably acceptable to use the plural for Blake Films and then add present rather than presents. Other than that the title begins with the quotation marks " and ends with ' and there is a capital R in present which should be lower case.
Maybe you are thinking of something else altogether!

All valid points you make, but I was thinking of something different. My observation was in the gap appearing in the word FILMS, situated between the letters L and M.
Yes what you say is correct. Christopher Reeve's previous released film was Superman in 1978. and he was now a big star when Somewhere In Time was released. He was credited all around the world with first billing on all posters printed for this film, not including though this Australian daybill version.
The daybill containing this bad but not picked up error was printed by an uncredited Australian printer. The following Australian one sheet, which was printed by M.A.P.S., however does show the correct order of the crediting of the actor's names.

If it's early 60s then GI Blues (1960) is okay isn't it?

Original U.S.A. artwork.

A slight mistake made with this poster. Any idea?

Pitfall 1948 Australian daybill poster, Can you figure out the error here as it won't be easy?
The Love God? ( 1969 ) U.S.A, lobby card. What is our of place here?
All That Heavens Allows (1955) later duotone printing. Someone was really not paying attention here.

F. Cunninghame apparently realised their mistake, then produced a correct amended replacement version as seen above..

This leaves only Pitfall. A far too obscure error, so I will now reveal the problem that the poster has.
As seen above Lizabeth Scott in an actual scene from the film holds the gun in her right hand, which is also as it appears on the U.S. poster artwork.
The Australian daybill artwork has her depicted with the gun being held in her left hand.

The Gospel According To St. Matthew ( 1964 ) Australian daybill.
A very minor error here with this one. and it should be easy enough to spot

Somewhere In Time (1980 ) Australian daybill film poster.
Are you able to spot something defective about this poster's presentation?

Many appear to have been asleep at the wheel here.
