An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Argentinean Movie Poster (measures 14 1/4" x 21 3/4" [36 x 55 cm]) (Learn More) What Price Glory, the 1926 Raoul Walsh silent World War I (WWI) United States Marine Corps (USMC) military romantic love triangle comedy ("The World's Greatest Motion Picture"; "From the stage triumph by Laurence Stallings and Maxwell Anderson"; a very gritty tale of two Marines who keep fighting for the same pretty woman, and the movie showed a very realistic view of Marines that outraged censors and made the movie a major success, and it spawned two sequels where McLaglen and Lowe played the same characters, "Cock-Eyed World" and "Women of All Nations") starring Edmund Lowe, Victor McLaglen, Dolores Del Rio, William V. Mong, Phyllis Haver, "And a Superb Cast". Note that the world premiere program for this movie mentions that "18 of the 40 men now alive who went into Belleau Woods during the famous battle appear in the movie". It also mentions that "85% of the men playing soldiers in this movie are actual war veterans who fought overseas" and that "every gun, cannon, grenade and other implement of war used" in the movie were actually used in World War I! Also note that John Ford remade this movie in 1952, with James Cagney in the lead role. 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 this is one of a remarkable find of 143 Argentinean posters from 1926 to 1929 that were recently discovered! They all measure approximately 14 1/4" x 28 1/4", which was one of the two main sizes created for Argentinean movie posters at that time (the other was a poster that measured 29" x 43"). It is likely that prior to this amazing find, there were only a small number of these posters known to exist in the entire world, and after these 143 are auctioned, it is unlikely that there will be many more discovered, even over the coming decades! This is a rare opportunity to purchase an Argentinean poster from the late 1920s, a time when virtually no movie posters from any country are known to exist! Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good. There are a few minor patches of slight discoloration scattered in various areas (more so along the foldlines), typical of Argentinean posters of this time period. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
