A 1925 Re-release Vintage Theatrical Tri-Folded Six-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 81" x 81") (Learn More)

the 1925 re-edited version (with new scenes, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Little Big Horn) of Custer's Last Fight, the 1912 Thomas Ince silent cowboy western ("The Big, New, and Only Original Frontier Spectacle of the Celebrated Battle of Little Big Horn"; "The Battle of No Survivors"; "Educational - Every School Boy and Girl Should See It"; "A Picture All Should See - Man, Woman, and Child"; "On The Screen In Its Full Glory!"; "Stupendous Colossal Gigantic"; "A picture that 'hews to the line,' letting the chips fall where they may"; "The Greatest Wild West Feature Ever Filmed"; "Coming!! The Mighty Epic Spectacle of the Old-Time West"; "Coming!"; "Commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the Battle at Little Big Horn"; "The greatest Indian frontier spectacle ever shown"; "Dedicated to the Spirit of the American Pioneer"; "Famous Indian Uprising in 1876 Under the Bloodthirsty Sitting BullL"; "Taken in the Black Hills. Over a Year in the Making") starring Francis Ford (in the title role as General George Armstrong Custer), Grace Cunard, Charles K. French, William Eagle Shirt, and J. Barney Sherry. In 1925 (just ahead of the 50th Anniversary of the Massacre at the Little Big Horn, known as "Custer's Last Stand"), the original movie was re-cut and some new footage was shot and the movie was re-presented with all new posters and lobby cards. I have never seen or heard of ANY 1912 movie paper item of any sort from this movie, so items from the 1925 re-edited version are the only option if one wants to get something from this movie!

Important Added Info: The poster is extremely fragile and there are small tears and a few very tiny areas of paper loss on some foldlines. But 99% of the poster is there (and it really has next-to-no defects other than that which is described above), and any talented restorer could surely linenback this poster without great difficulty, and after proper restoration, the poster would look fantastic, and there would be little paint restoration anywhere in the image. But please do not bid on this poster unless you realize that it is quite fragile in its present state (but will no longer be fragile once it is properly restored)! This six-sheet poster was tri-folded only (which means there is one less vertical machine fold than usual). This means the poster has a significantly lesser number of folds than with six-sheets folded in the "regular" way, which is nice! Tri-folded six-sheets need to be sent in an oversized flat package, which measures roughly 16" x 38", so they cost more to send than regularly folded six-sheets. This six-sheet was printed in 4 sections.

Condition: very good.
