An Original Vintage Theatrical One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 25" x 39 1/2" [64 x 100 cm]) (Learn More) The Kid From Cleveland, the 1949 Herbert Kline Ohio baseball sports melodrama ("the story of... a kid... a city... and 30 godfathers!"; "Story by Herbert Kline and John Bright"; about a kid with trouble at home who runs away to stay with the Cleveland Indians, who actually play themselves!) starring George Brent, Lynn Bari, Russ Tamblyn (billed as "introducing Rusty Tamblyn and his 30 godfathers"; in his first credited movie role!), and the entire roster of the 1949 Cleveland Indians, 30 in all (who appeared as themselves; this included manager Bill Veeck, Hank Greenberg, Bob Feller, Satchel Paige [legendary black African American pitcher who played this one year with the Cleveland Indians at the age of 43], Larry Doby, Bob Lemon, and a host of other baseball greats!), Tommy Cook, Ann Doran, and Louis Jean Heydt. One of those other baseball players in the movie was Gene Bearden, who was the real life baseball World Series hero from the 1949 Cleveland Indians, and also was Rookie of the Year. He played himself in this movie (and in "The Stratton Story" made the same year). 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 poster has been trimmed and it now measures 25" x 39 1/2" [64 x 100 cm]. Note that this item needs to be shipped in an oversized flat package. Some of these items can ONLY be sent in flat packages, and could not possibly be rolled into a tube. On some of them (for example f it is a size that might ordinarily be rolled in a tube, like a half-sheet), the reason it is in this auction is specifically because we feel it either CAN'T be rolled or because we feel it would be a mistake to roll it, because it might well damage the item. In the case of the few items that could be rolled, we will roll the item in a tube if the new owner insists, but only if they accept that they can't return the item if it is damaged from being rolled. So please bear in mind that this item must be sent in a LARGE flat package (the size of the package will depend on the size of the item), and bear this added expense in mind before placing a bid on it. Condition: poor to fair. The poster is mounted on to cardboard. Prior to being mounted, it had MUCH separation along the foldlines and edges and someone touched up parts of the damaged areas with marker. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid and please do not bid unless you can accept the defects described above, or you are willing to pay to have them properly restored.
