Auction History Result 9t1771 MYSTERIOUS PILOT chapter 15 1sh 1937 aviation hero Captain Frank Hawks in Retribution, rare! Date Sold 9/28/2021 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Chapter #15 (Retribution) One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) The Mysterious Pilot, the 1937 Spencer Gordon Bennet action adventure airplane aviation serial ("Sensational battles far above the Earth!"; "Thrill-filled drama... with the fastest man alive!"; purportedly written by L. Ron Hubbard, creator of Scientology) starring Frank Hawks (billed as "Capt. Frank Hawks"), Dorothy Sebastian, Rex Lease, Guy Bates Post, Kenneth Harlan, Clara Kimball Young, Esther Ralston, and Yakima Canutt. Note that star Frank Hawks had been an ace pilot in World War I, and after the war, he became a professional pilot, setting several speed records. In 1932, he appeared in two films, one of them a short, and then he starred in this movie five years later, and those were his only three film roles. Sadly, the following year, he passed away, dying in a plane crash at age 41 (and he was not in an experimental plane or doing stunts). Also note that, apparently, the person who made this serial had a love of silent movies, because some top stars from the silent days showed up in supporting roles in this serial!

Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned a one-sheet from this chapter (15) before! Condition: good to very good. The poster has a small amount of separation in the crossfolds and in some fold edges and borders and those areas are mostly backed with some tape. There are a few inches of separation at the left edge of the lower horizontal fold. It has general fold and border wear, but is otherwise in pretty nice condition, and after a pretty simple linenbacking the rare poster will display well! Learn More about condition grades
