An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More)

a 1953 John Wayne stock poster used by theaters to advertise re-released John Wayne cowboy western movies from Republic studio. Theaters would order this poster, which has a large blank area where the title of the specific film being shown could be added, thus getting many posters for the price of one.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that after John Wayne achieved major stardom in 1939 with "Stagecoach", distributors rushed to re-release his many 1930s B-westerns to theaters, and many of them were shown in 1939 as the second half of a double bill, and re-releases of 1930s B-western John Wayne movies remained popular throughout the 1940s, as he continued to be a major star. In the case of this specific poster, which was printed in 1953, it was overprinted with the title and credits for "Wyoming Outlaw", one of John Wayne's Three Mesquiteers movies from 1939.

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and minor fold and border wear. It had an NSS stamp on the back of the left of the middle of the title area, and it bled through to the front in the yellow background. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not very distracting (and a talented restorer could touch them up without re-backing the poster). Note that the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster.
