Notes:
- Tagline Note: No comparison, lower center. Two tags were used on this poster art in all its formats ("The human adventure is just beginning" and "There is no comparison").
- The 40 x 60 poster was produced by movie studios from the 1930s through the early 1980s.
- The number stamped at the bottom right and top left, 790177, is the NSS (National Screen Service) number for this film. The first two digits represent the release year, while the last four represent the film’s sequential release position for the year (TMP was number 177 for 1979). (From 1940 until the mid-1980’s, the NSS controlled production and distribution for nearly all the movie posters, lobby cards, etc, for films released in the United States.)
- Fine print at the bottom of the poster indicates it is the property of the NSS and it "must be returned immediately after use."
- The small logo at the bottom center-left is the trademark label of the Graphic Arts International Union.
