He is best remembered for his work with MGM in the 1940s when he created film star art and movie posters.

Approx. measurements: 9 x 12 inches ... Would be great matted and framed. Would be terrific hung in a double sided frame.

This is in wonderful condition. Shows some mild bumped corners.
Excellent for the Movie buff or fan of the Actors. Original Publicity poster, not a reproduction. Marked Litho U.S.A.
