        One of the best batches of posters I've seen on e**y in a long time!

        I would like to take the opportunity to point out something about the 
"Cocaine - The Thrill That Kills) window card that many of us have.  I finally 
did some research into this and it's not any of the domestic klassic Kocaine 
films, but is actually the US release for c. 1949 "LETTERA ALL'ALBA," an 
italian post-war noir that was released throughout the rest of the world 
(including the US) as variations of "Cocaine."

        The artwork on the US WC is based on the various European art designs 
used, and I also found a US article as well that identified the stars of 
"Cocaine" as those of "Lettera..."

        The identity of this movie had been bugging me for a long time and I 
hope this helps other collectors.

        --Peter
