Description
Original Belgian Poster (15x22). Good Condition.
Original Belgian Poster (15x22) for the Stuart Gilmore western, THE VIRGINIAN (1946) starring Joel McCrea, Brain Donlevy, Sonny Tufts, and Barbara Britton. This film is almost a word for word remake of the 1929 version starring Gary Cooper. The story, originally written by novelist Owen Wister, is the granddaddy of a new western genre that based its characters on real people and not just on legends. The crux of the story centers on the Virginian catching Steve (Tufts) stealing cattle. Since there is no organized law in the territory at that time, the Virginian has to hang Steve himself without a trial or jury. This original Belgian poster is in good condition only-- with both upper corners torn off, censor stamps, and some border distresses. The poster has also been trimmed slightly.
