McGann California Gold Rush romantic love triangle melodrama (oddly, John Wayne plays an easterner, a pharmacist who goes to Sacramento during the California Gold Rush, but of course, Wayne is far tougher than any easterner in any other western we've seen, and he gets in trouble when he steals the girl of the local political boss, but he redeems himself when a typhoid epidemic breaks out) starring John Wayne, Binnie Barnes, Albert Dekker, Helen Parrish, Patsy Kelly, Edgar Kennedy, Dick Purcell, Emily La Rue, and Esther Estrella NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.

Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds. It had tiny tears, separation, and tiny bits of paper loss on parts of some foldlines, and pinholes, tears, and paper loss around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Note that the restorer left a tiny bit of excess linen around all four sides of the poster (they left a small border in order to protect the poster from handling damage, but they did not leave a larger border, to allow it to more easily fit in a frame).
