Note that two years after this serial was released, Republic Pictures created a feature version by drastically condensing the serial, and released it in 1942 under the title "The Yukon Patrol". Because of the long delay between the releases, we list them as separate movies in our database. 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: This poster has been professionally linenbacked. It now looks great, and most dealers would describe it as "fine (or mint) on linen". We have noted the defects that were restored below (and feel everyone should always do this!). Many collectors would not be aware of the restoration this poster has had unless it was specifically shown to them! Condition: good to very good. The poster had paper loss in the bottom border, going into the "SA" of "SABOTAGE". The piece was well replaced. There were other smaller areas of paper loss and tears around the edges of the poster. There were several tears in the cen. Most of the linenbacked posters we sell were restored by the finest professionals. An expertly linenbacked poster will often appear "mint", as its defects have been made to "vanish". We are the only seller we are aware of who always tries to describe the condition of the poster prior to being linenbacked, so you are fully aware of what restoration was performed.
