This is an original Selznick 1940 “Limited Engagement” Six Sheet Poster for the Victor Fleming Civil War masterpiece, GONE WITH THE WIND (1939)—starring Vivien Leigh, Clark Gable, Olivia de Havilland, and Leslie Howard. Based on the epic novel by Margaret Mitchell, this film is certainly one of the greatest films ever made, bringing together a stellar list of talent in Hollywood at the time. Not only are all the performances outstanding, the scenery and costumes are sumptuous, the cinematography by Ernest Haller and Ray Rennahan (shot entirely in Technicolor) is glorious, and the music of Max Steiner is memorable. The film was nominated for 13 Academy Awards—including Best Picture, Best Actress to Leigh, Best Director to Fleming, and Best Cinematography. The poster for issued for the year 1940, and is considered original material. This is certainly the best poster depicting the burning of Atlanta. GONE WITH THE WIND was released in a few markets at the end of 1939, but the vast majority of its run began after January 1940. Some posters have erroneously been tagged as “roadshow” for GWTW. This is a misnomer. The film was never released as a roadshow attraction. Rather, Selznick rolled out a very slow release for the movie intended to build interest and positive word-of-mouth buzz over time. A more successful campaign for the release of the film could hardly have been accomplished. Adjusted for ticket price inflation, GONE WITH THE WIND has been (for decades) the highest grossing film ever made. This original stone lithograph six sheet poster is linen-backed and in very fine condition.

We count this as a 1968 poster.

THE CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE (1936) 19995

full-thechargeofthelightbrigade-sc

Original Warner Brothers Scene Lobby Card (11×14) for the Michael Curtiz epic war adventure, THE CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE (1936) starring Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland. This is the only scene card in the set for this film which features both Flynn and de Havilland. Errol Flynn, flush with the huge success of CAPTAIN BLOOD, re-teams with co-star de Havilland and director Curtiz to create this epic tale, which owes more to the prose of Rudyard Kipling than to the famous poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson. While the final “charge” is one of the most incredible scenes ever filmed, so many horses were injured and had to be destroyed that humane societies nationwide raised such an outcry that standards were established to bar this kind of cruelty to animals in the future. The card does exhibit some minor flaws only visible under close examination– including a small chip our of the top left corner, pinholes in the top border, minor staining in the bottom corners, and some light creases. This lovely linen-finished (not to be confused with linen-backing) scene card features the classic pair in a smoldering embrace and is in fine to very fine condition.

Original Warner Bros. One Sheet Poster (27×41) for the Michael Curtiz and William Keighley adventure epic, THE ADVENTURES OF ROBIN HOOD (1938)—starring Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland. Fresh from his overnight success in CAPTAIN BLOOD (1935), Flynn was the archetypal Robin Hood; indeed, the young and athletic actor insisted on doing most of his own stunts, including perilous leaps and the scaling of high walls. Flynn was surrounded with some of the best character actors of the day. This film was one of the first color productions, and the entire movie is bathed in astounding Technicolor. The lavish sets and the rich score by Erich Korngold also add greatly to the production quality of the film. Many critics still consider this one of the greatest adventure films ever produced, and THE ADVENTURES OF ROBIN HOOD remains to this day one of the most popular films of all time. This original one sheet poster is in very good condition. We are showing this poster unrestored.
