CORRAL 1/2sh 1957 c/u portraits of Burt Lancaster & Kirk Douglas, rare! Date Sold 6/13/2019Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, the classic 1957 John Sturges cowboy western starring Burt Lancaster (as Marshal Wyatt Earp), Kirk Douglas (as Doc Holliday), Rhonda Fleming, Jo Van Fleet, John Ireland (as Johnny Ringo), Lyle Bettger (as Ike Clanton), Dennis Hopper (as Billy Clanton), John Hudson (as Virgil Earp), DeForest Kelley (as Morgan Earp), Martin Milner (as Jimmy Earp), and Kenneth Tobey (as Bat Masterson). Note that Kelley and Milner, who played the other Earp brothers would go on to great fame on TV shows! Finally, there is no great evidence that any of these events ever occurred! They were written down many years after the fact, and were told by people who said they were there, but there is no corroboration for their stories. 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 first release half-sheets on this classic movie have always been very rare (perhaps because the movie was quickly re-released in 1964). We have only auctioned the this style of half-sheet twice before! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Also note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thinner paper backing, it COULD be sent rolled, but we would MUCH prefer to send it in a large flat package (because we fear that rolling it, even into a wide tube, would have an excellent change of damaging it, so we will only send it in a tube if the buyer insists, and then they would be responsible for any damage), but otherwise, we will ship it in a very large flat package, so bear that expense in mind before bidding on this poster.

It had pinholes, smudges, and a few stains around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well, but someone put a small piece of clear tape in the center of the top and bottom blank borders. Learn More about condition grades
