Kyne; about bank robbers who kill a man during a holdup, and they escape into the desert, and they find a woman who is giving birth, and she dies, but when they learn that the father was the man they killed, they feel it is their duty to get the baby to safety, but it is all they can do to save themselves) starring John Wayne, Pedro Armendariz, Harry Carey Jr. (billed as "introducing Harry Carey, Jr."), Ward Bond, Mae Marsh (the famous silent star), Jane Darwell, Ben Johnson, and Hank Worden. The very first adaptation was by Broncho Billy Anderson in 1915's "Broncho Billy and the Baby", followed by another version a year later under the source novel's name, followed by a third version called "Marked Men" in 1919. That movie was remade twice, both times under the source novel's name, in 1936, and in 1949, that time with John Wayne, and it was not directly remade again, although other movies borrowed elements of the plot. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good to very good. There is 3" of horizontal separation at the top and middle crossfolds. There is about 1" of separation at the bottom crossfold. There is about 8" of vertical separation below the top crossfold. There are a few tack holes in the top center edge of the image background. There are several tears in the foldlines and borders. There is a piece off the right of the top blank border. Overall, the defects are not that major and could be greatly improved with conservation tape from the back. Of course, if you are willing to have the poster restored, this is the sort of poster that is relatively easy to linenback, and after backing, it would look wonderful!
