An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Chapter #2 (The Tiger of Destiny) One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) King of the Wild, the 1931 B. Reeves Eason & Richard Thorpe Africa jungle adventure horror serial ("A Mascot Serial"; "An all-talking serial in twelve stirring chapters"; written by Ford Beebe) starring Walter Miller, Nora Lane, Dorothy Christy, Tom Santschi, Boris Karloff, Victor Potel, Carroll Nye, and Arthur McLaglen (as Bimi the Ape Man). Note that this movie was made prior to "Frankenstein", which resulted in Boris Karloff being fifth billed, and he is pictured on very few posters. Had the movie been released a year later, no doubt he would have been top billed! Also, this serial didn't start production with "all-talking" in mind, and some of the actors did not have very good speaking voiced and not much dialog was written. Though no one is actually credited, a great deal of narration was added to the serial in Post Production. It is generally thought that Boris Karloff (who had lots of stage experience) did all the voice-over narration. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that while we have auctioned one-sheets from several other chapters of this serial, we have only twice before auctioned an example of this chapter 2 one-sheet, which has a great completely different image from the other chapters! Condition: very good. The poster has clean separation in the center 5" of the top and bottom folds and in the bottom of the vertical fold. It has small separation at the other crossfold with some tiny tears and tiny paper loss in the blank borders. After a simple linenbacking the poster will display well!
