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!

Prior to linenbacking, the poster was in good condition. It appears that the poster was tattered on all four sides and that the left and right blank borders have been largely recreated. It also appears that some of the writing in the very bottom credit line of the poster has been somewhat repaired. It also seems that the letters of Errol Flynn at the top of the poster have been repainted. The image area had many small tears and tiny areas of paper loss along most foldlines and a lesser number in areas between the foldlines. Whoever restored the poster did a very nice job on the image area, as they greatly improved the defects, but they did not spread paint over the entire poster. Looking closely at the poster, one can see a lot of restoration, but from any distance away, it becomes far less noticeable and the poster looks great! Learn More about condition grades
