First off, Channing, that one-sheet is definitely a 1945 re-release. Second, Phil, we DO assume that the one-sheets were printed at the same time as the three-sheets and lobby cards, so yes, we can date most re-release lobby cards with this method.
But note that while sometimes three-sheets and one-sheets from the same movie have litho numbers that are incredibly close, other times they are very far apart, so that complicates things. And of course, every litho company started their numbers over every ten years or so, so the same number could be from three very different years, around a decade apart.
