An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More)

Born to the West, the 1937 Charles Barton cowboy western (based on the novel by Zane Grey) starring John Wayne, Marsha Hunt, Johnny Mack Brown, Monte Blue, Lucien Littlefield, and Nick Lukats. Note that the IMDb claims that there was a "clerical error" that resulted in Alan Ladd's name being added to the cast (as "Inspector"), but that he was not actually in the movie (he was in just a few movies at this time in very minor roles). Apparently, this clerical error was repeated in 1950, because when the movie was re-released that year (under the title of "Hell Town"), Alan Ladd's name appeared prominently in the credits!

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

Condition: very good. small hole at the top crossfold, tiny holes at the other two crossfolds; small holes down the top 1/4 of the vertical foldline (some repaired with tape from the back); one 1/2" hole and around seven smaller holes in the top right corner (in the "NE" of "ZANE"); the back of the upper right of the poster has what appears to be lots of small paint stains, but they have next-to-no effect on the front; pinholes in the corners; 1" of separation at the right of the top crossfold. Other than the above basically minor defects (which would essentially disappear with standard linenbacking), the poster is in quite nice condition!
