An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More)

The Lost Battalion, the 1919 Burton L. King silent France World War I (WWI) battle melodrama ("Re-enacted by the survivors"; "Tells more than living breath") starring Robert Alexander (Major General), George C. McMurtry (Major), Charles W. Whittlesey (Lt. Colonel), William J. Cullen (Captain), and Arthur F. McKeogh (Lieutenant). Note that the Lost Battalion is the name given to the nine companies of the U.S. Army 77th Division isolated by German forces in the Argonne Forest in October of 1918. Roughly 197 were killed in action and approximately 150 missing or taken prisoner before the 194 remaining men were rescued. Whenever possible, the actual survivors participated in the film's re-enactments.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have never auctioned even a single poster or lobby card from this movie until we received this one-sheet! Also note that the poster's vertical fold was slightly off center, which means that the poster will need to be sent in a larger than normal flat package, but only slightly larger. However, bear this in mind when bidding on this poster.

Condition: good to very good. The poster has separation and tiny paper loss at the bottom crossfold, and a partial second vertical fold between the top and bottom crossfolds. It has a tear and tiny paper loss in the center of the bottom border and some creases and slight darkening around the edges. After a simple linenbacking, this incredibly rare poster will display wonderfully!
