Auction History Result 5j0626 ROGUE OF THE RIO GRANDE insert 1930 young Myrna Loy full-length & c/u in early western, rare! Date Sold 8/18/2020 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Rogue of the Rio Grande, the 1930 Spencer Gordon Bennet Texas cowboy western musical comedy ("The romantic adventures of a handsome bandit-"; "The adventurous romance of a dashing lovable bandit chief.") starring Jose Bohr (in the title role as El Malo), Myrna Loy, Raymond Hatton, Carmelita Geraghty, and Walter Miller. Note that the makers of this movie wisely recognized what an asset they had in a very young Myrna Loy, and they wisely featured her prominently in the center of the advertising for the movie! Note that male lead Jose Bohr's name may be unfamiliar to you, but he was a most unusual person, and a real "renaissance man". He was born in Germany, but moved to Chile, and he became a film maker, actor, songwriter and composer of tangos, among other professions! He starred in the first Spanish-speaking film produced in Hollywood, and he appeared as an actor in this Hollywood movie, but he spent most of his career making movies in Mexico, Venezuela, Cuba, and Argentina! Bohr lived a long life before passing away in Norway in 1994 at the age of 92. 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 we have only once before auctioned an example of this poster, and that one was in MUCH lesser condition, while this one is far nicer. Note also 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: very good. The poster has some tiny surface paper loss on the top fold with some tiny bits of paper loss in the right blank border and a 3 1/2" tear in the lower right yellow background area (fortunately entirely in the yellow area). Someone put tape on the back of the above defects, but otherwise did no restoration. The poster can certainly be displayed as it is or one might choose to have slight restoration performed (either with or without backing the poster). Learn More about condition grades
