Auction History Result 6r195 OKLAHOMA KID 1sh R56 James Cagney & Humphrey Bogart in the bloodiest feud of the West! Date Sold 10/21/2010 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. A 1956 Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Unfolded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 26 3/4" x 39 3/4" [68 x 101 cm]) (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!

Important Added Info: Note that this one-sheet has been trimmed and it now measures 26 3/4" x 39 3/4" [68 x 101 cm]. Condition: fair. A small amount was trimmed from the blank borders and then the poster was mounted to a light board and no restoration was done. Before being mounted, the poster had separation and fine surface paper loss scattered on the foldlines. Obviously, a talented restorer could likely remove this poster from the light board, but it might be very expensive. Also, it will have to be sent in a very large "one-sheet size" flat package, so bear both of these things in mind before placing a bid on this item. Learn More about condition grades
