Hi to everyone... I recently acquired this full colour stock poster printed by F Cunningham. I have only seen one other like this around and that is in the Museum Of Victoria. They listed it as a 1940s release but perhaps not accurately from what i have been told by another very helpful source. I have been told Cunningham printed these in the 1950's but could have done some in the 1940's. With this in mind, can anyone 100% verify this poster as been a 1940's or 50's release.

My thoughts on the above one sheet are that the poster, without any proof, is that it is a 1950's printing due to the F.Cunninghame connection.

The following version due to the style of the 20th Century Fox logo would I believe have it being one printed sometime in the 1940s.

I had a glass slide that also had 20thFox on it, but it was 20thFox world leadership production - circa 1946/47.
