Frugal theater owners would get one of these posters and use it every time they showed a Tim McCoy movie (they could write the title in the blank area, or glue on a paper snipe getting many uses out of a single poster!). 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: Also note that this poster was printed by "Posters Inc." of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and is not a studio-issued poster. This was a company like the "other company", which printed their own posters for major movies in the 1930s, for use by theaters that (for one reason or another) had trouble getting posters directly from the studios. When National Screen Service took over most poster distribution in 1940, these companies went out of business. Sometimes those posters were less expensive than the regular studio posters, and they were also much in demand when a theater needed posters in a hurry, for no theater wanted to show movies without displaying posters!
