1928 MGM 40,000 MILES WITH LINDBERGH ONE -SHEET MOVIE POSTER
. Unquestionably the most historic poster ever offered for sale on ebay. This poster was made in 1928 to advertise the MGM film about the great aviator and American hero. Everyone knows Charles Lindbergh. He's got to be one the top ten most famous people of the 20th Century. This poster was made at the height of his popularity, right before the great depression gripped the world.
CHARLES LINDBERGH
In 1927 Lindbergh redefined "famous" and set a new standard for celebrity in the 20th Century. He achieved the first solo, non-stop flight across the Atlantic, from Roosevelt Field, Long Island, NY to Paris in 1927 in his "Spirit of St. Louis" airplane. The aftermath set off a firestorm of notoriety and Lindbergh became an overnight world-wide sensation. Lindbergh was named Time Magazine's "Man of the Year" for 1927. The dance craze, the "Lindy Hop" became all the rage and numerous popular songs about the aviator swept the country - "Lucky Lindy" and "Lindbergh (The Eagle Of The U.S.A.)" were the biggest. It was Lindbergh fever and everyone had it. Star Wars created a similar blast of excitement and interest when it was first released in 1977. Star Wars was a work of fiction - Lindbergh was the real deal!
1928
1928 was a big year for the new American hero. "Lucky Lindy" won just about every award offered by society. In Washington, D. C., on March 21, the President of the United States (Calvin Coolidge) even awarded Lindbergh the Congressional Medal of Honor that had been voted by special act of Congress. The citation reads:
"For displaying heroic courage and skill as a navigator, at the risk of his life, by his nonstop flight in his airplane, the "Spirit of St. Louis," from New York City to Paris, France, 20-21 May 1927, by which Capt. Lindbergh not only
achieved the greatest individual triumph of any American citizen
but demonstrated that travel across the ocean by aircraft was possible."
Pretty amazing words coming from the top people in the country. A few weeks after the Medal of Honor ceremony Lindbergh presented his famous monoplane, Spirit of St. Louis, to the Smithsonian Institution, in Washington, D. C.  In 1928 MGM also released "40,000 MILES WITH LINDBERGH" the documentary film advertised on this poster. The film stars the one and only Charles Lindbergh.
MGM spared NO expense creating this extraordinary poster image. They called on the services of their TOP poster artist - Ted Ireland also known as "Vincentini." The likeness and charm of Lindbergh was masterfully captured on this amazing stone litho poster with class and distinction. A finer poster from the era does not exist. In fact this poster is the
only known original
. No poster is rarer than this one! I have set a very reasonable price for it:
The poster market on elite posters has skyrocketed the past couple 10 years.
This
40,000 MILES WITH LINDBERGH
is truly one of the BEST, most important, and, elite  film posters ever created!
The poster has been archivally linen-mounted, and has been stored in ideal conditions -
Flat (not rolled)
between acid-free paper.
I will ship the poster flat or roll it up and ship in a tube, depending on which the buyer prefers.
Buying this poster is ECONOMY PROOF!
Why waste your money in the stock market? It can crash regardless of any decision you make and can even crash regardless of any decision made by the company related to the stock - Leaving you with a near worthless piece of paper that won't inspire anyone! With the purchase of an historic document such as this Lindbergh poster, it doesn't matter what happens to the economy, you'll still have the poster, which can be displayed and enjoyed. The magnificence of art and historic documents have an inherent value that relates to civilization and society. Unless civilization itself crashes then this piece will hold its value, and, if civilization itself crashes - Who'll care about money? This poster is definitely
ECONOMY PROOF!
