An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Herald (measures 8 3/4" x 11 1/2" [22 x 29 cm]; 2 pages) (Learn More) The Oklahoma Kid, the 1939 Lloyd Bacon cowboy western ("From an original story by Edward E. Paramore & Wally Klein"; about two Oklahoma families, one of whom wants to bring law and order to the territory, and the other who is an outlaw gang and wants to keep law and order far away) starring James Cagney (in the title role as Jim Kincaid), Humphrey Bogart, Rosemary Lane, Donald Crisp, Harvey Stephens, Al J. Jennings, and Ward Bond. Note that James Cagney was a major Warner Bros. star at this time, but Bogart was not considered to be, in spite of his success in "The Petrified Forest" two years earlier. So Cagney got to play the "good guy", and Bogart played the "bad guy" (dressed all in black!), and Bogart was not pictured on the original release posters. When the movie was re-released in 1943 (this date is confirmed by the IMDb and handwriting that we saw on the back of a re-release poster), Bogart WAS pictured on the advertising, because he too was now a big star!

This is one of an excellent collection of 27 rare heralds from the late 1930s and early 1940s which was recently discovered. Many of them are ones we have either never auctioned before or only auctioned once or twice. The heralds were all printed in the U.S., but were mostly used in theaters in Egypt, so most have overprinting on the back for an Egyptian movie theater. Also, almost all of the heralds have either tiny circular holes scattered in the image (sometimes very few, sometimes more), and some of them have larger paper loss somewhere in the image. We strongly suggest you look closely at our images of the fronts and backs of these rare heralds before bidding on them, so you can see the location of the tiny circular holes or larger paper loss. Condition: fair to good. There are six tiny circular holes scattered in the herald and some bleed-through from the printing on the back in the top left, including in Cagney's hat and face. See above for more about the condition of this herald and please look at our super-sized images of both sides before bidding. Learn More about condition grades
