An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) Zorro's Fighting Legion, the 1939 John English & William Witney south-of-the-border masked hero cowboy western serial ("A Republic serial in 12 chapters"; we have never seen this movie, but based on the advertising, we can tell that Zorro recruits a whole lot of guys to be "assistant Zorros"; we wonder where they ordered all those Zorro costumes from!) starring Reed Hadley (in the title role as Don Diego/Zorro), Sheila Darcy, William Corson, Leander De Cordova, Edmund Cobb, and Carleton Young (as Benito Juarez). Note that we show no record of a U.S. release of this serial as an edited feature version, but it seems that such a version was created for international release, because the non-U.S. posters we have seen make no reference to it being a serial. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
