Cobb (as Marshal Lou Ramsey; "Frontier Marshall"), Henry Fonda (as Jethro Stuart; "Buffalo Hunter"), Carolyn Jones (as Julie Rawlings; "Marshall's Wife"), Karl Malden (as Zebulon Prescott; "The Sod Buster"), Gregory Peck (as Cleve Van Valen; "The Tinhorn"), George Peppard (as Zeb Rawlings; "Horse Soldier"), Robert Preston (as Roger Morgan; "Wagon Master"), Debbie Reynolds (as Lily Prescott; "Gambler's Bride"), James Stewart (Jimmy Stewart; as Linus Rawlings; "Mountain Man"), Eli Wallach (as Charlie Gant; "The Desperado"), John Wayne (as General William Tecumseh Sherman; "The General"), Richard Widmark (as Mike King; "Empire Builder"), Spencer Tracy (as the narrator), Brigid Bazlen (as Dora Hawkins), Walter Brennan (Colonel Jeb Hawkins), David Brian, Andy Devine, Ramond Massey (as Abraham Lincoln), Agnes Moorehead (as Rebecca Prescott), Henry [Harry] Morgan (as General Ulysses S.

Artist: Reynold Brown Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a set of six very unusual special French posters! Each measures 27 1/2" x 39 1/2", and each is horizontal, and each was printed in Italy (by "Rotolito", who printed high quality posters used in the United States) and each is printed on a glossy heavy stock paper, similar to that used for U.S. half-sheets and inserts! The posters are undated. All six of the images were done by famed poster artist Reynold Brown. Five of these six images were used on the U.S. roadshow three-sheet, and one of them does not appear to have ever been used on a U.S. poster. I have not seen any of these posters at auction before! We are selling each of the six posters as individual items (you can find the other five posters elsewhere on eBay). This poster was tri-folded only (which means there is no vertical machine fold) but because it would be more expensive to send flat, it will be sent rolled in a tube. NOTE: In this case, the #1 in the title of this sale is not the style of the poster. In this case, the styles from this particular set of posters were not labeled, but because we are selling more than one poster from this title this week as separate eBay sales, we needed to differentiate between them, and we did so by marking them "#1, #2, etc. Condition: very good to fine. The poster had two evenly spaced horizontal folds only. There are some creases along both foldlines. There are a few creases around the edges of the poster, and a few scattered through the image, but none are very noticeable or distracting. There is tiny paper loss in the lower part of the left blank border. Learn More about condition grades
