Auction History Result d149 BUSTER'S SPOOKS one-sheet movie poster '29 kids scared by dog w/mask! Date Sold 8/1/2006Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Buster's Spooks, the 1929 Sam Newfield comedy short ("One of the well known 'Buster Brown' comedies by Richard F. Outcault", based on the newspaper cartoon comic strip) starring Arthur Trimble (in the title role as Buster Brown), Doreen Tunrer, and Pete the Dog. Note that Pete the Dog played Tige in all the Buster Brown movies starting in 1924. He also became Pete the Pup in the Our Gang movies, and he played that role until 1931, appearing in an amazing 90 movies over those seven years. Supposedly, he lived for another 15 years after he retired! Also note that the Stern Brothers were a very energetic pair of producers who made over 500 silent comedy shorts between 1917 and 1929!

Note that the poster has 6" long pieces of yellow masking tape on the back of the top and bottom crossfolds and two 6" long pieces on the back of the left of the top foldline and on the back of the left and right of the bottom foldline. Strangely, it appears that those pieces of tape were primarily put on the poster for reinforcement, as they are not covering long tears, as you might expect! All of those pieces of tape have darkened considerably, but because the front of the poster is quite dark, the bleed through barely shows, except in the places where the tape was on the back of the blank borders. I would think most collectors could display this cool poster just as it is, as the tape bleed through is really not very distracting at all. Learn More about condition grades
