Kyne! Date Sold 4/3/2018Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 17 1/4" [36 x 44 cm]) (Learn More) Three Godfathers, the 1936 Richard Boleslawski cowboy western ("Peter B. Kyne's great outdoor romance!"; 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 Chester Morris, Walter Brennan, Lewis Stone, Irene Hervey, Sidney Toler, Dorothy Tree, Roger Imhof, and Jean Kircher (as the baby). Note that 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. The first sound version was titled "Hell's Heroes" and directed by William Wyler in 1929, and then it was remade twice more, both times under the source novel's name, in 1936 (this version), and in 1948. The 1948 version featured John Wayne, and the novel not directly remade again since that time, although other movies borrowed elements of the plot. Also note that movie paper of any kind from this early sound version of this movie is extremely scarce. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that it looks like the left, right, and bottom borders might have been trimmed, but actually, they were printed with a "full bleed", something MGM was doing at the time, which means there were no white borders when the card was printed (although the top blank area has been neatly trimmed off and it now measures 14" x 17 1/4" [36 x 44 cm]). Also note that this window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
