Eric Rohman was born in Nyköping and grew up in Helsingborg. He was one of the very few people in Sweden who could make a living by only producing posters. He produced about 7,000 works, according to his own estimate.
Rohman’s brother was the manager of one of the big cinema chains and the need for posters was great. Rohman usually worked with few colors and did not spend much time on details, he had a great ability to quickly pick out the essentials.

Are those supposed to be music notes? It looks like the clown is getting stabbed with weird needles
Yes, I think the notes are coming from the trombone in the lower left.
Weird that the artist sort of drew them each as if on a staff but not really
