eMoviePoster.comAuction History Result 6r007 JOHN WAYNE insert '40s great image of young John Wayne, Randy Rides Alone! Date Sold 2/5/2013Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Undated (probably 1940s) Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Stock Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) one of three John Wayne stock inserts used by theaters to advertise re-released (and in some countries, the first release) John Wayne cowboy western movies that he made for Lone Star Pictures in 1933 and 1934. The first of these inserts was made by Monogram when they re-released those Lone Star Pictures sometime between 1935 and 1939 (there are similar one-sheets for each of those titles, but they only made this generic insert for those re-releases), and it has a great headshot image of John Wayne at the top and artwork at the bottom. We believe the other two inserts date to the mid 1940s (both have solely "A Lone Star Western Re-release" on them), when he had even greater success with his World War II movies, and one of those inserts is similar to the 1930s insert, but with the elements rearranged, and the other has a waist-high image of Wayne pointing a gun. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been machine folded! Most insert posters were folded twice horizontally right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded example of most insert posters, especially from before 1970! Condition: very good. There is a very light pencil mark in Wayne's image left of center. There are two small tears in the upper left edge of the poster that have been repaired with tape from the back and there is small paper loss in the upper right blank corner. The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition and it displays well. Learn More about condition grades
