An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded "Other Company" Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Rudyard Kipling's The Light That Failed, the 1939 William A. Wellman England artist-going-blind tragic romantic melodrama ("Ronald Colman in Rudyard Kipling's famous story of heroism, love and high adventure!"; "Screen play by Robert Carson"; "A great picture surges from the pages of Kipling's mighty story"; "Based on the novel by Rudyard Kipling"; about an artist who needs to complete his masterpiece before he goes blind!) starring Ronald Colman, Walter Huston, Ida Lupino, Muriel Angelus, and Dudley Digges 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 was printed by the "other company". This was a company in the Midwest that from roughly 1936 to roughly 1941 printed its own one-sheets and lobby card sets (and a very few inserts, half-sheets, three-sheets, 40x60s and stills) for three major studio movies (Warner Brothers, Paramount and United Artists, but no other studios). The posters and lobby cards are from the original release of the movie, and almost always have completely different artwork from the regular studio release. They never have the name of the releasing studio on the poster or any of the lobby cards. Sometimes, "other company" posters or lobby cards have images that are the equal of those from the regular studio release posters or lobby cards! Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. There is tattering and small paper loss at center, along the foldlines, and around the edges of the poster (some repaired with tape from the back). There are many pairs of staple holes around the edges of the poster and there are some scuff marks, smudges, and minor creases scattered throughout. Learn More about condition grades
