Gunga Din, the classic 1939 George Stevens British-in-India military romantic war melodrama ("Inspired by Rudyard Kipling's poem"; "Inspired by Rudyard Kipling's heroic lines"; "Out of the stirring glory of Kipling's seething India they roar - three fighting, loving, swaggering sons of the lusty Battalions... in the picture that's too big for words!"; "The giant of all romance - action shows!"; "Red-blood and gunpowder heroes... roaring for battle or ready for love!"; "From a Story by Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur"; note that IMDB lists William Faulkner as an uncredited writer for this movie) starring Cary Grant, Victor McLaglen, Douglas Fairbanks Jr., Sam Jaffe (in the title role as Gunga Din), Eduardo Ciannelli, Joan Fontaine, and Robert Coote

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this style B half-sheet is incredibly rare. We have never auctioned it before, and we have never auctioned the style A half-sheet either!

Note that because the poster has condition issues, we don't want to roll the poster prior to mailing, because we believe that rolling the poster would likely lessen its condition even more. If you specifically request it, we will roll this poster, but you will not be able to return it. Otherwise, it will be sent in a large flat package that measures approximately 24" x 30" (but it can be combined with other posters the same size, including ones that could be rolled). Please bear the expense of a large package in mind before bidding on this poster.

Condition: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfold and creases, scuffs, and separation along both folds, with pinholes, tears, and some stains around the edges. Someone put tape on the back of both folds and performed slight amateur restoration to the front.
