An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Style B Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Frank Capra's Riding High, the 1950 Frank Capra horse racing sports gambling musical comedy ("Screenplay by Robert Riskin"; "Based on a story by Mark Hellinger"; about down and out folks who need a long shot horse to win so they can pay off debts, a very common plot!) starring Bing Crosby, Coleen Gray, Charles Bickford, Frances Gifford, William Demarest, Raymond Walburn, James Gleason, Ward Bond, Clarence Muse, Percy Kilbride, Harry Davenport, Frankie Darro, and Oliver Hardy. Note that this was director Frank Capra's musical re-make of his own 1934 "Broadway Bill", and Capra actually used many of the same actors so he wouldn't have to re-shoot any of the big race scenes, which were reused in this film! 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 this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
