An Original Vintage Theatrical Kraftbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 26 3/4" x 41" [68 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Water Rustlers, the 1939 Samuel Diege singing cowgirl cowboy western musical ("The Singing Cowgirl") starring Dorothy Page, David O'Brien, Vince Barnett, Stanley Price, and Leonard Trainor. Dorothy Page had a very interesting background! She married a doctor in 1925 when she was 21, and in the early 1930s, they were struggling, and she auditioned for Paul Whiteman, and became a singer with his band. In 1935, she was signed by Universal and appeared in two movies, but they dropped her. In 1937, Grand National, which was on the verge of bankruptcy after their disastrous loss on Something to Sing About, signed her to become "The Singing Cowgirl", and they made four movies with her over two years, but those did not do well, and the series was killed. She had several marriages and personal misfortunes, and she passed away in 1961 at the age of 57. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been trimmed and it now measures 26 3/4" x 41" [68 x 104 cm]. Also note that this poster has been kraftbacked, which means it was backed onto a brown paper soon after it was printed (this process is called "kraft-backing", and posters with it are called "kraft-backed"). One could have it professionally removed from the kraft paper and linenbacked, and it would look great! Condition: fair to good. The borders of the poster have been trimmed. After the poster was mounted onto the paper, the borders of the paper were folded over the front of the borders of the poster and glued down. There is a distributor snipe at lower left and a censor stamp in the lower right corner. A restorer can remove the poster from the paper and properly linenback it, after which it will look great!
