Third Man - Swedish poster.  I think the imagery is pretty cool, though the artist bungled the likeness of Trevor Howard IMO.  Orson Welles, Joseph Cotten, and Alida Valli look good.

I love The Night of the Hunter.  It's too bad most of the US paper for the movie is pretty bland.  But this lobby card makes up for it.

Thanks!  Yeah, that is one of my favorites.  It's not too common to see Mexican one sheets from this era with the landscape orientation

The artist, Antonio Arias Bernal, also did a lot of caricature, political cartoons, and propaganda work.

The book "El siglo XX en la mirada de Antonio Arias Bernal" has some cool examples of his non-poster work (sadly out of print):
