Auction History Result 3j0354 MELODY TRAIL linen 1sh 1935 Gene Autry, Ann Rutherford & Buck from Call of the Wild, rare! Date Sold 2/18/2020 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Melody Trail, the 1935 Joseph Kane singing cowboy western musical ("Radio's singing cowboy in a roundup of melody"; "From the Story by Sherman Lowe & Elizabeth Burbridge") starring Gene Autry, Buck (billed as "Buck the Wonder Dog"), Ann Rutherford (in her third movie role!), Smiley Burnette, Wade Boteler, Champion (Gene's horse), and Willy Castello. Note that the dog in this movie was Buck, the very same dog who starred in Call of the Wild with Clark Gable this same year. This was his first movie after that, which is why he got such great billing. But alas, he only appeared in a total of 8 movies, and his last one was in 1940 as a "dog in a pet store", after which we don't know what happened to him.

Important Added Info: Note that first release 1935 movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned a half-sheet from the first release of this movie (and no other first release movie paper) until we received this one-sheet! What IS linenbacking?
