Item Description
32.25x59" tall die-cut cardboard standee w/silk-screened design is for the original release of the 1948 Republic Western serial starring Lone Ranger actor Clayton Moore as Jesse James and Steve Darrell as Frank James. Standee features the pair at top w/revolvers drawn and small image of female co-star Noel Neill (Lois Lane in the 1940s Superman serials and 1950s "Adventures Of Superman" TV show). Horizontal fold at center as issued. Standee shows obvious wear (more noticeable at bottom) and scattered aging w/small hole on Darrell's arm, 2" dia. area of circular wear indicates standee once had spinning attachment added, now missing. Back does not have easel standee as produced, instead, this display was secured w/reinforced cardboard discs w/string at middle. Good/VG overall, but still retains vibrant color and is still displayable. While studios made standees for a high percentage of Hollywood productions, very few are known to survive from pre-1970 movies. This is a high-end promotional item that saw very limited distribution as most theaters chose to display the basic movie poster for promotional purposes. Rare and first we've seen in our 48 years.
