Auction History Result 8b681 MOKEY insert '42 cool image of young Robert Blake, Donna Reed & Dan Dailey! Date Sold 5/20/2014 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Mokey, the 1942 Wells Root romantic comedy ("A story of real people with real laughs and real heart-throbs"; "Based on stories by Jennie Harris Oliver") starring Dan Dailey (billed as "Dan Dailey, Jr."), Donna Reed, Robert 'Bobby' Blake (in the title role as Mokey), Cordell Hickman, Etta McDaniel, and Billie 'Buckwheat' Thomas. Note that Robert Blake had gotten his start in acting as "Mickey" in "Our Gang" movies in 1939. His character was named "Mickey" because his real name was Mickey Gubitosi. In 1942, he had an uncredited role in "Kid Glove Killer", and later in 1942, he was given the starring role in this movie "Mokey", where he was billed as Bobby Blake, which was the very first time he was billed under this name, and his first starring role in a movie!

Some pre-1970 insert posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 insert posters (note that most post-1970 inserts were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those inserts). Condition: good to very good. There is a 2" tear in the lower left edge of the poster. There are large pieces of brown paper tape on the back of the poster at bottom, but they were not put there for any restoration purpose. The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition.
