Auction History Result 4k0597 REBELLION 3sh 1936 cool art of Tom Keene & Rita Hayworth as Mexican Rita Cansino, rare! Date Sold 5/28/2020 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) Rebellion, the 1936 Lynn Shores Old California Mexico cowboy western romantic melodrama (based on the story by John T. Neville; set in 1850, two years after California became part of the U.S.; crooked Americans have started seizing ranches from Mexicans living in California, and the sister of the leader of the Mexicans goes to President Zachary Taylor to ask him to help them, and he sends Tom Keene, who fights the bad guys, and when the Mexican leader, played by Duncan Renaldo, is killed, he takes his place and helps the Mexicans get justice) starring Tom Keene, Rita Hayworth (billed as "Rita Cansino"; this was her seventh credited movie role!), Duncan Renaldo, William Royle, and Gino Corrado. Note that Rita Cansino was a professional dancer who had a few small roles in Columbia movies, usually dancing. She left Columbia to make this movie, where she had the really significant role of the sister of the Mexican leader, and it did cause her to become noticed, and after three more movies away from Columbia, she re-signed with them, and Harry Cohn made her over as "Rita Hayworth", and the rest, as they say, is history!

Important Added Info: Note that first release movie posters from this western are extremely scarce (in fact, we have only auctioned one first release still, and no lobby cards or posters). Why is that? It is almost surely because the movie was re-released in 1946 to capitalize on Rita Hayworth's popularity, and she was top billed (the same was done for her other western roles, but in this case, it is not as deceptive, since she had an important part). But that quick re-release likely destroyed whatever original paper was left. We have only previously auctioned one example of this three-sheet. The buyer of that poster has now reconsigned it to us, so this is still the only example of this poster we have ever auctioned! Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Condition: good to very good. There is some darkening on the back of the part of the poster that was on the outside when it was fully folded. There are some creases and several tears along the foldlines that were on the outside when the poster was fully folded. There are some creases, smudges, and tiny tears on some foldlines, and some tiny paper loss at some crossfolds. There are many tiny staple holes around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
