Date Sold 4/17/2022 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Custer's Last Stand, the 1936 Elmer Clifton historical Battle of Little Bighorn cowboy western serial ("Based on historical events leading up to Custer's Last Fight"; "Spectacular historical drama") starring Rex Lease, Jack Mulhall, William Farnum, Ruth Mix (daughter of Tom Mix, who appeared in around a dozen movies, starting as a teenager), Lona Andre, Reed Howes, Bobby Nelson, Dorothy Gulliver, Frank McGlynn Jr. (in the title role as General George A. Custer), William Desmond, Helen Gibson (as Calamity Jane), Nancy Caswell, George Chesebro, Josef Swickard, Chief Thundercloud, Ted Adams (as Buffalo Bill), Allen Greer (as Wild Bill Hickok), High Eagle (as Chief Crazy Horse), Howling Wolf (as Chief Sitting Bull), Iron Eyes Cody, and Franklyn Farnum. Note that there was a feature version of this serial which was created by editing the individual chapters into a single film, and both the feature and serial have the same name and were released in 1936. The same one-sheet posters were used to promote the feature and serial, but the serial version had chapter information overprinted onto it (otherwise they are the same poster and even have the same litho numbers). No unique one-sheets were created for the serial chapters, only lobby cards. 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 previously auctioned one example of this insert! What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster had pretty minor wear on the folds. It had paper loss in the corners, slightly extending into the image. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Note that either the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster, or possibly the owner of the poster chose to carefully trim off the excess, so that the poster would fit in a frame. After the poster was backed, it was roughly handled, and it acquired a tear in the upper right blue background area (it could be re-glued by a professional or talented amateur).
