JUNGLE JIM Daybill Movie Posters Strikingly similar!

I guess the artist for the original Australian daybill of the 1953 Jungle Jim film Valley of Head Hunters was feeling a bit lazy. He basically used the same design as was used in the daybill for Voodoo Tiger (1952). The only difference was that the plane crash was left out of Valley of Head Hunters and, of course, the credits are different.
