Auction History Result 3v106 ROUGH RIDERS WC '27 Teddy Roosevelt, great stone litho of Mary Astor & Charles Farrell! Date Sold 2/10/2009 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked Style A Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 13 3/4" x 21 3/4") (Learn More) The Rough Riders, the 1927 Victor Fleming silent Spanish-American War Cuba historical biographical military action adventure thriller ("A Victor Fleming Production"; "'You can't call a man a coward - if he dies trying!'"; "Based on the story by Hermann Hagedorn"; about the equestrian military unit organized by future U.S. President Teddy Roosevelt and its adventures in Cuba during the Spanish-American War of 1898) starring Noah Beery Sr., Charles Farrell, George Bancroft, Charles Emmett Mack, Mary Astor, and Frank Hopper (as Theodore Roosevelt). Note that co-star Charles Emmett Mack had incredibly bad luck in being killed in a car crash the day after this movie had its premiere! Bizarrely, he had only appeared in eleven movies prior to this one, and almost every one (including this one), his character was killed during the movie! Note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving complete copies are thought to exist. 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 this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Also note that this window card has been very slightly trimmed and it now measures 13 3/4" x 21 3/4". Condition: good to very good. The poster had creases, smudges, stains, tears, pinholes, and areas of paper loss around the edges, but only had a few smudges and tiny stains within the image area. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was well backed, because you can see slight signs of the restoration of the above defects, but from any reasonable viewing distance, they are not distracting, and the poster does not have a "restored" look.
