Date Sold 6/7/2016Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Gunners & Guns, the 1935 Jerry Callahan & Robert J. Horner cowboy western (a re-edited version of the 1934 film "Racketeer Round-Up" with new footage featuring King the horse) starring King (billed as "'Black King' The horse with the human brain"), Edmund Cobb (billed as "Edwin Cobb"), Edna Aslin, Francis Walker (billed as "Frank Walker"), and Edward Biby. Note that this is a curious movie! The horse "Black King", which was apparently an incredibly talented horse (it had a "human brain") had made his screen debut in "Trail's End" in 1935, and was quickly rushed into two more movies that same year. Mitchell Leichner of Beaumont Pictures had the brainstorm to acquire the rights to the 1934 B-western movie "Racketeer Round-Up", and he filmed seven more minutes with Black King, and rushed the re-edited movie into theaters in 1935 under the new title "Gunners and Guns" (and we list it as separate from "Racketeer Round-Up" due to their substantial differences). We have not seen either movie, but someone who has says that this movie is way worse than anything Ed Wood did! Finally, note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good to very good. The poster has darkened slightly. There are many pinholes, stains, and small tears around the edges, and separation on parts of the folds, and someone put tape on the back of many of those areas, but the poster displays pretty well just as it is, or certainly, it would be a simple linenbacking job.
