An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Zane Grey's Thunder Mountain, the 1935 David Howard gold mining cowboy western romantic melodrama (based on the story by Zane Grey; about a pair of cowboys who find a gold mine in "Thunder Mountain", but have no money to develop it; one of them rescues a girl on a stagecoach and her grateful father agrees to finance them, and on the way back, the girl pretends to fall in love with one of the cowboys, thinking he is about to be very rich; but when he gets there, he finds that a bad man has stolen the claim and started a town, and everyone turns on him, including the girl, but luckily, a pretty bar girl, who is secretly in love with him, sticks by him, and he ends up in a climactic shootout with the bad guy on the mountain where the gold is) starring George O'Brien, Barbara Fritchie, Frances Grant, Morgan Wallace, and George 'Gabby' Hayes. Note that there is an oddity about this movie! It was released in September of 1935, and it says "A FOX RELEASE" on the posters, but Fox had merged with 20th Century Pictures to form 20th Century-Fox in May of 1935. The only thing we can speculate is that this movie was completed before May, but was held on the shelf for several months, and that they had already printed posters for it and were too cheap to print new ones! If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. 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 we have only previously auctioned one example of this first release one-sheet, and that was 24 years ago! What IS linenbacking?
