An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Argentinean Movie Poster (measures 29" x 43" [74 x 109 cm]) (Learn More)

Destry Rides Again (released in some countries as "Arizona"), the classic 1939 George Marshall romantic cowboy western gambling poker comedy ("Based on the novel by Max Brand"; about the son of a famous sheriff who arrives in a crooked western town, with the hopes that he is like his father and will "clean up" the town, but he seems to be far from the man for the job, because he has Eastern ways, but he soon proves the naysayers wrong) starring Marlene Dietrich (as Frenchy), James Stewart (Jimmy Stewart; in the title role as Tom Destry Jr.), Charles Winninger, Mischa Auer, Brian Donlevy, Irene Hervey, Una Merkel, Allen Jenkins, Warren Hymer, Billy Gilbert, Lillian Yarbo, and Jack Carson. Note that the title of the movie refers to Stewart's character returning to the town where his father had been sheriff, but it is not a sequel of any sort. Oddly, when the movie was re-made with Audie Murphy in the lead role, the title was shortened to simply "Destry", which means that "Destry Rides Again" came before "Destry"!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this Argentinean poster was printed in Argentina, but was printed entirely in English. We don't know why this was, but we have seen other Argentinean posters like this, and it certainly gives it greater appeal for an English speaking collector.

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair to good. The poster had small paper loss at the top crossfold, and many creases, tiny tears, and small areas of paper loss across the bottom two horizontal folds. It had creases, scuffs, and smudges scattered throughout, and creases, smudges, tears, and stains around the edges. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to linenbacking. Many years ago, someone backed it to linen with no excess, and performed slight restoration to the above defects, but it is noticeable and the poster is rippling quite a bit. Certainly, the poster should be re-backed, so please read our description above and look at our super-sized image before placing a bid on this poster.
