Finally, note that anyone who saw this movie remembers well the archery contest which comes down to Errol Flynn in disguise and Owain the Welshman, but few people know that Owain was played by the world's greatest archer, Howard Hill, and that he also did Flynn's bow and arrow stunts shown in the movie!

Important Added Info: Note that when this classic movie was first released in 1938, the lobby cards were printed on a "linen-like" paper that Warner Bros. used from the mid 1930s to the early 1940s. Toward the end of World War II, when all of their top stars were away in uniform, Warner Bros. started re-releasing many of their classic 1930s titles, but because they had switched to printing lobby cards on the regular paper stock, those re-releases can be easily distinguished from the first releases (they often have exactly the same images otherwise). This title card is from the 1945 re-release, just seven years after the original. Given that the first release lobby cards sell for huge amounts of money, this very early re-release is a great alternative! Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. Condition: very good. There is darkening in the left of the bottom blank border and in small parts of the other borders. Otherwise, the card is in nice condition. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
