An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Style B One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More)

Zane Grey's The Vanishing Pioneer, the 1928 John Waters silent cowboy western ("From a novel by Zane Grey"; sort of the reverse of "Shane", where the townspeople are the "villains", and the ranchers are the "good guys"!; the townspeople are using up all the water, just like in "Shane", and they kill one of the ranchers who is trying to protect his water, and after a lot of action, the ranchers win, but when the townspeople tell them that the town will die without water, they nobly give up the water and pack up and move further out into the wilderness!) starring Jack Holt, William Powell (as usual in his pre-starring roles, Powell plays a villain, in this case a corrupt politician who frames one of the ranchers!), Fred Kohler, Sally Blane, and Guy Oliver. Note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this style B one-sheet, and that was 10 years ago. That poster has now been reconsigned to us, so it is still the only example of this poster we have ever auctioned!

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had very minor wear on the folds. It had some tears and small paper loss in the bottom blank border and a lesser amount in the left blank border, with almost none in the other borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Note that either the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster, or possibly the owner of the poster chose to carefully trim off the excess, so that the poster would fit in a frame.
