An Original Vintage Theatrical Window Card Movie Poster (measures 14" x 22") (Learn More) The Adventures of Robin Hood, the classic 1938 Michael Curtiz & William Keighley England royalty romantic adventure thriller ("Dazzling to the eye... stirring to the heart - a great entertainment from Warner Bros."; "Based "He lives again - the world's most beloved rogue!"; On Ancient Robin Hood Legends"; "Photographed in Technicolor"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award) starring Errol Flynn (in the title role as Robin Hood), Olivia De Havilland (as Maid Marian), Basil Rathbone (as Sir Guy of Gisbourne), Claude Rains (as Prince John), Patric Knowles (as Will Scarlett), Eugene Pallette (as Friar Tuck), Alan Hale Sr. (as Little John), Melville Cooper (as the Sheriff of Nottingham), Ian Hunter (as King Richard the Lion Heart), Una O'Connor, and Herbert Mundin. Note that the mount of Maid Marian is played by none other than Trigger the Horse, before he was purchased by Roy Rogers! Finally, note that anyone who saw this movie remembers well the archery contest which comes down to Errol Flynn in disguise and Owain the Welshman, but few people know that Owain was played by the world's greatest archer, Howard Hill, and that he also did Flynn's bow and arrow stunts shown in the movie!

The top blank area of the card was trimmed off and the card measures 14" x 18". The card was framed for many years, and a glue was applied to the back of the card which darkened the back, but it does not have an effect on the front. The card had pinholes, smudges, tears, and some small areas of surface paper loss around the edges of the card, entering the edges of the background areas, but not touching the figures on the left and right of the card, or the credits. At some time years ago, someone put four small pieces of conservation tape on the back of the card, mending tears, and a piece of conservation tape on the back of a pinhole that was in the bottom left of the "R" of "ROBIN" in the title. They also performed very slight touch up to the borders and the parts of the background that had smudges. Overall, the card is in pretty good condition, because its defects were almost exclusively in the borders and blank background areas, and the image itself only has slight restoration where there were some pinholes (mostly in the background at the top of the card and in the "bricks" at the bottom left of the card). I would think most collectors would be happy to display this great window card! Learn More about condition grades
