This color poster advertises *The Red House*, the 1947 thriller directed by Delmer Daves, and its title refers to a sinister farmhouse hidden in the woods. Edward G. Robinson, a star of the period's crime films, leads the cast alongside Judith Anderson, while Lon McCallister, Allene Roberts, and a young Julie London are also credited in the record. The circa 1946 date suggests the poster was printed during the months before release, when studios were building public interest in a picture. Its large, pictorial design reflects how Hollywood sold its films to audiences in that era.
