An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) For His Master, the 1914 Christy Cabanne silent religious cowboy western melodrama short ("The Great two part drama"; "By the noted author George Pattullo"; about a priest who goes to a rough western town, and he meets an outlaw who he thinks can be reformed, and with help from the outlaw's sister, he gets the outlaw to renounce his evil ways!) starring Bob Burns, Miriam Cooper, Raoul Walsh, and Frank Bennett. Note that the "Bob Burns" who stars in this movie is NOT the same person as the 1930s comedian Bob Burns, who is known as "The Arkansas Traveler". This Bob Burns started acting in early silents and continued in minor parts all the way to 1957, appearing in amazing 387 movies! Also, note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. 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 auctioned this poster once in all of our years of auctioning, and now the same poster has been reconsigned to us, so it is still the only example poster we have ever auctioned! Note that this poster measures 28" x 42" [71 x 107 cm]. Also note that the poster was placed on to a very thin linen backing shortly after being printed. The purpose was to reinforce the poster, so that it would survive, when it was passed from theater to theater, and when it was put up on walls and taken down. Such posters can be professionally removed from the original linen and placed on to a proper linen backing. I have done this to several such posters, and they end up looking wonderful! Condition: fair to good. The poster was folded in half an extra time resulting in a vertical foldline at left and right and there are creases and smudges scattered throughout. There is some tattering and small paper loss around the edges of the poster and at some of the crossfolds. The poster is otherwise in generally nice condition, especially considering its age, and if one chose to have it removed from the old linen and had it properly restored it would look fantastic!
