In Old California (released in Spain as "California"), the 1942 William C. McGann California Gold Rush romantic love triangle melodrama (oddly, John Wayne plays an easterner, a pharmacist who goes to Sacramento during the California Gold Rush, but of course, Wayne is far tougher than any easterner in any other western we've seen, and he gets in trouble when he steals the girl of the local political boss, but he redeems himself when a typhoid epidemic breaks out) starring John Wayne, Binnie Barnes, Albert Dekker, Helen Parrish, Patsy Kelly, Edgar Kennedy, Dick Purcell, Emily La Rue, and Esther Estrella

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 never auctioned any style of half-sheet for this movie in all our years of auctioning. Note also that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: fair. The poster is in much lesser condition. There are several defects scattered along the edges and foldlines/crossfolds and there are several significant areas of foldline separation. Many of the defects have been repaired with tape from the back (especially along portions of the right half of the horizontal fold and portions of the vertical foldline, and some of those areas are touched up with marker). Several tape repairs have bled through to the front. There is rippling and some water staining in some areas. The rare half-sheet poster is in urgent need of restoration, and certainly a competent restorer could repair the defects described above, but please bear in mind the cost of restoration before placing a bid.
