Auction History Result p554 SON OF PALEFACE linen one-sheet movie poster '52 Rogers, Hope, Russell Date Sold 3/21/2005Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Son of Paleface, the 1952 Frank Tashlin cowboy western crime screwball comedy sequel ("Written by Robert L. Welch and Joseph Quillan"; about an eastern dude who goes west to claim his father's gold, but the gold is missing, and there is a beautiful head of a gang of thieves who robbed it, and there is a righteous sheriff played by Roy Rogers) starring Bob Hope, Jane Russell, Roy Rogers, Trigger (Roy Rogers' horse), Bill Williams, and Lloyd Corrigan. Note that this was sort of a sequel to 1948's "The Paleface". That movie, starring Bob Hope and Jane Russell, but not Roy Rogers, had been written by Frank Tashlin, and he was unhappy with the result. So he wrote this movie, which stars the "son" of the star of the first movie (again played by Hope), but this time, Tashlin was able to direct it himself, and one presumes he was much happier with the result! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had very minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were well restored, OR it had some minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster had three quarter-sized areas of paper loss (one at each crossfold), wear along the foldlines, and pinholes, creases, and smudges around the edges. The areas of paper loss were well replaced, and the other defects were well restored, and the poster now displays quite nicely! Learn More about condition grades
