An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36") (Learn More) Texas Stagecoach, the 1940 Joseph H. Lewis singing cowboy western musical ("Blazing bullets and rousing rhythms!"; "Blazing bullets and rousing songs roar the glory of the west!"; "Gun-flaming... Song-blazing adventure!") starring Charles Starrett, Iris Meredith, Dick Curtis, and Bob Nolan and the Sons of the Pioneers ("Famous Radio Stars") NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. This poster was linenbacked, but it was either NOT linenbacked by a very talented restorer, OR it was linenbacked many years ago, and has received rough handling over the years, OR it had fairly significant defects that were not well restored. If it was restored, you can clearly see signs of the restoration even from a distance. This is a poster that would surely benefit from additional professional restoration. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "Pre-Restoration Defects & Quality of Restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster has many light slightly diagonal creases running horizontally across the faces of the two stars. There are a lesser number of similar horizontal creases running through the rest of the image. This poster became wet (during a floor) AFTER it was linenbacked, and when it dried, the results were these light creases. Prior to linenbacking, there were creases and tiny surface paper loss on the foldlines, and many creases, tiny stains, and tiny tears around the edges of the poster. The poster COULD be displayed "as is", as the creases described above are not that distracting (but they ARE clearly noticeable), or a talented restorer could re-back the poster and make it look like it did prior to being water damaged.
