Permission
(Reusing this file)
English: The poster omitted a copyright notice and was published in the United States prior to 1978, and as such entered the public domain upon publication. This can be verified by examining other high-res scans of the poster, including e.g. this scan via the blog Ryan McCormick Film History; while McCormick's scan is in worse condition, it includes more of the margin area and confirms a lack of copyright notice.

Licensing

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published in the United States between 1929 and 1977, inclusive, without a copyright notice. For further explanation, see Commons:Hirtle chart as well as a detailed definition of "publication" for public art.
Note that it may still be copyrighted in jurisdictions that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works (depending on the date of the author's death), such as Canada (50 p.m.a.), Mainland China (50 p.m.a., not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany (70 p.m.a.), Mexico (100 p.m.a.), Switzerland (70 p.m.a.), and other countries with individual treaties.
