An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) The Last Wilderness, the 1935 ("Produced by Jerry Fairbanks"; "Photography by Ned Frost") outdoors nature archery bow-and-arrow hunting documentary (Hill is shown killing a buffalo with his bow and arrow, so that his team can eat, and the movie also shows a wildcat and a coyote fighting to the death, and a mother bear defending her cubs from an attacking killer bear) featuring Howard Hill ("'World's Greatest Archer'"). Note that Howard Hill is widely regarded as the world's greatest archer ever (among his achievements was killing an elephant with a bow and arrow!). He made this, his first movie, in 1935, which was three reels long, and he appeared in 19 other shorts over the next 14 years, and then made "Tembo" in 1952, which he produced, directed, and starred in! Movie paper from "Tembo" is somewhat rare, and movie paper from any of his shorts is beyond rare! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that, as noted above, movie paper from any of Howard Hill's short subjects are incredibly rare (we have only previously auctioned a very lesser condition title card from this same one, but nothing from any of his other 19 shorts). And, as mentioned above, this was his very first movie, and the poster has a wonderful image of him with his trademark bow and arrow! Condition: fair. The poster is rippled throughout, and there are brown water stains scattered down the center, where there is also separation and tiny paper loss on the vertical fold. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its defects described above or are willing to pay to have them properly restored. Learn More about condition grades
