Auction History Result 4z108 BLOOD ON THE SUN military 1sh R50s art of James Cagney & sexy Sylvia Sidney! Date Sold 9/20/2011 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Undated (probably 1950s) Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Folded Military One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Blood on the Sun, the 1945 Frank Lloyd anti-Japanese World War II (WWII) crime thriller ("Cagney's mightiest!"; "CAGNEY... With both fists flying!"; "Battle the Japs with Cagney"; produced by William Cagney) starring James Cagney, Sylvia Sidney, Porter Hall, John Emery, Robert Armstrong, Wallace Ford, Rosemary De Camp, and John Halloran. Note that when the United States was deep into World War II, racist epithets were used against the Japanese they were fighting, and they were prominently put on movie posters of that time like this one, and we certainly hope never to see that again! Also, note that Cagney trained intensively in the martial art of judo for his role, and performed his own stunts. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
