An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Style B Stock One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) a Western Classics stock poster sent to theaters that regularly showed Hopalong Cassidy movies. The theater could put up the poster each time they showed a Hopalong Cassidy movie, and thus use the same poster over and over! The posters would often have a blank area where the title could either be written in, overprinted, or a snipe could be pasted on. Note that Western Classics distributed these movies in both 1946 and 1947, with different stock posters for each year. A year later, these same Hopalong Cassidy movies were again distributed to theaters, this time under the Masterpiece Productions distributor logo. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is a "stock" poster created by Western Classics for use for all entries of their "Hopalong Cassidy" series. Theaters would order this poster, which had a large blank rectangle in the bottom center. They would either be sent a series of large paper snipes with the titles of specific entries of the series, and they could paste in each snipe as needed, thus getting many posters for the price of one, or sometimes the studios would overprint posters with specific titles before sending them. Sometimes stock posters are found with blank snipe areas. Most collectors consider them more valuable with a printed snipe attached or with an overprinted title. This particular poster is overprinted with the title "Heart of Arizona". Condition: fair. The poster has become brittle and there is much tattering and separation along the foldlines and edges with some areas of paper loss scattered throughout. There is much writing on the back of the poster, but it does not appear to have any effect on the front. Learn More about condition grades
