Date Sold 12/12/2019 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Trailing African Wild Animals, the 1921 Martin Johnson & Osa Johnson silent Africa jungle safari big game hunting adventure documentary ("The world's most perilous camera expedition"; "Mr. and Mrs. Martin Johnson's Trailing African Wild Animals") starring Martin Johnson, and Osa Johnson. Note that Osa Johnson was married to Martin Johnson, and that they made African documentary movies for 20 years, but Martin Johnson was killed in 1937 during the filming of "Borneo", but his wife finished the movie and released it after his death, and she also released one final movie, "I Married Adventure", in 1940, three years after her husband's death, and on that movie, she was billed as "Osa Johnson (Mrs. Martin Johnson)". This was one of the two dozen or so movies that the Johnsons made between 1912 and 1928, but very little survives on any of them. 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 ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned a single lobby card and a glass slide from this movie until we received this half-sheet! Also note that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: very good to fine. The poster was never folded. It had an 8" tear in the upper right, extending into the "CAN", that was repaired with tape from the back. Otherwise, the poster is in really nice condition, and it is also not fragile, which is really unusual for a poster this old! Learn More about condition grades
