Appears in John Wayne Movie Posters at Auction CATALOG SOLD OUT The image at right appears in the auction catalog we published as shown above and was sold long ago and we do NOT have it available for purchase. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Stock One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) one of four John Wayne stock posters used by theaters to advertise re-released (and in some countries, the first release) John Wayne cowboy western movies that he made for Lone Star Pictures in 1933 and 1934. The first of these was made by Lone Star Pictures itself in 1934, and has an artwork image of a cowboy on a horse that does not resemble John Wayne. The second of these was made in 1939 when John Wayne achieved major stardom with Stagecoach, and distributors rushed to re-release his many 1930s B-westerns to theaters, and this poster shows a recognizable John Wayne on a rearing horse with an inset image in the top right corner. There are two other Lone Star stock John Wayne posters that we believe date to the mid 1940s, when he had even greater success with his World War II movies, and one has him standing full-length by a tree, and the other has a closer image of him along with Gabby Hayes.

This poster was linenbacked, and the restorer did a good job, but you can see signs of the restoration from inches away (since most people look at posters framed on a wall from at least a few feet away, we don't feel this is a defect, but we feel it should be noted). See below for this poster's pre-restoration condition (we are the only major auction company we know of that shares this information with our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). good to very good. The poster was folded in half an extra time and there were creases and tears along most of the foldlines. There was tape down much of the vertical foldline, and there was both staining and paper loss down the vertical foldline. The borders of the poster have tears, creases, smudges, and areas of paper loss. The person who restored the poster did a nice job, as the poster's defects are really not very noticeable (although you can see signs of the restoration on the vertical fold.
