Auction History Result 3x001 JOHN WAYNE 1sh '40s great image of The Duke, The Desert Trail! Date Sold 11/12/2013 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original 1940s Vintage Theatrical Folded Stock One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) one of four John Wayne stock one-sheets (and an insert) 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 one-sheets 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 one 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 late 1940s (probably 1947), 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. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good to very good. There are minor creases and smudges scattered throughout the poster and there are some tack holes and small tears around the edges (some repaired with tape from the back).
