Artist: Reynold Brown Important Added Info: Note that famed artist Reynold Brown was commissioned to paint four spectacular landscape horizontal paintings, each with a different scene of the winning of the West. Some or all of the art was used on just a few posters, and this poster uses two of the four images he created. Condition: fair to good. The poster had tears in the lower right between the bottom of the title and the top of the image. Someone put tape on the back, which bled through to the front, but fortunately it is only in the blank area. There was also tape on the back of the bottom 8" of the vertical foldline and that somewhat bled through to the front in the center of the bottom image (see our image).
