Note that two years after this serial was released, Republic Pictures created a feature version by drastically condensing the serial, and released it in 1942 under the title "The Yukon Patrol". Because of the long delay between the releases, we list them as separate movies in our database. 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 there are several jagged clean tears (no paper loss) in the left of the bottom border extending into the directors' credits. Other than this relatively minor defect, the poster is in great condition, and it is completely unfolded! Also note that this poster was never machine folded. Most movie posters from before 1980 were machine folded immediately after printing, but a very few were left unfolded. An unfolded poster from before 1980 is almost always far more difficult to find than a folded poster of the same title, and finding unfolded posters in excellent condition is even more difficult! Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
