An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Polish Movie Poster (measures approximately 23" x 33") (Learn More) Ride the High Country (released in other English-speaking countries as "Guns in the Afternoon"), the classic 1962 Sam Peckinpah (directing his second big screen movie ever!) cowboy western ("Showdown in the High Sierras with the girl and the gold for the first to draw!"; "Showdown in the High Sierra!"; "In CinemaScope and Metrocolor"; about an ex-lawman who's hired to transport gold from the mountains and he hires an old friend to help him but the friend double-crosses him) starring Randolph Scott, Joel McCrea, Mariette Hartley, Ron Starr, Edgar Buchanan, James Drury, Warren Oates, and R.G. Armstrong. Note that this movie was excellent, thanks to the fine writing of Sam Peckinpah. But what really elevates it into being a classic of its kind is the inspired casting of two real life 1930s cowboy stars as the tired old stars of the movie. What is even more interesting is that originally the two stars were playing the opposite roles, but at some point early in production, Scott and McCrea realized they were better suited to playing the other role, and so they switched parts! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Maciej Hibner Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were extremely well restored, OR it had some very minor defects that were not completely restored, and are slightly noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "Pre-Restoration Defects & Quality of Restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster was never folded. It had some minor scuffs within the image and a few minor border defects. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, and looks great! Learn More about condition grades
