Auction History Result 3p0748 GENE AUTRY 1sh 1945 art of the smiling, singing cowboy & men on horseback, ultra rare! Date Sold 1/17/2023 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Folded One-Sheet Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) a 1945 Gene Autry stock poster created by Republic Pictures for use by theaters showing Gene Autry movies in the mid 1940s. Theaters showing Gene Autry movies would order this stock poster (which was sometimes sent blank, and sometimes sent with titles of specific movies overprinted in the bottom area). When a poster was sent blank, the theater would either place a snipe in the blank area, overprint the title themselves, or hand write in the name of the particular Gene Autry movie they were showing that week, and then they could reuse the poster with a different snipe at a later time, thus getting many posters for the price of one! 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: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned a single similar one-sheet and that was in 2007! Condition: fair to good. There is MUCH separation along portions of the vertical foldline (partially repaired with tape from the back) which makes the poster somewhat fragile. Other than a few edge defects it is otherwise "all there" and after proper restoration the very rare poster will display well, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it.
