  • Condition: This original movie poster still exhibits good rich colors and excellent detail on the images, particularly the actors. The flaws that do exist are generally on the edges and along the borders. There are pin holes in the corners and along the borders. There is a thin line of green paint along the outer edges of the top and right sides of the poster, and at the bottom left of the poster. There is a small green dot to the left of Roberson's left eye. There is separation at the center cross Fold but the paper and color remain at that location. On the left side there are smudges around the "D" in "DARK". At the top left corner the paper is slightly bent and the borders show some wear. Writing on the reverse does not bleed through to the front of the poster. There are no tears, no tape or tape residue, and no loss of color or paper. Overall the main image is very presentable and generally clean. The poster has a low to medium gloss. Please review the photos carefully.

    Description

    This is the Original (1sh) movie poster
    DARK SANDS, Style B.
    It was used by
    Record Pictures
    to promote this movie when it was released in 1938.  The movie and original movie posters were released in the UK in 1937, November.  It is not a reprint nor a reproduction.  The movie stars
    Paul Robeson, Princess Kouka
    , Henry Wilcoxon, Wallace Ford, John Laurie, and James Carew.  It was directed by Thornton Freeland.
    This unrestored movie poster is Folded and measures 22" x 28", known as a "Half Sheet".
    Most original movie posters issued pre-1985 are Folded.  This is not considered a flaw or a defect.
    This original movie poster is graded C7 Fine/Very Fine.
    Original movie posters are graded as follows from the top down: C10 (Mint), C9 (Near Mint), C8 (Very Fine), C7 (Fine/Very Fine), C6 (Fine or Very Good), C5 (Good to Very Good), C4 (Good), etc.    Overall, this original movie poster can be framed and displayed as is with good results.  A majority of the flaws occur along the poster's edges/borders which can be alleviated with proper and insightful framing.  The one flaw of any significance that is in the image is the green paint (about 3") at the bottom left of the poster that is in the image.  The center cross Fold also has creasing but laying the poster flat and proper framing can assist to alleviate that creasing.
    That said, the poster could be restored which would alleviate all of the aforementioned flaws.  We believe that the cost of restoration would be more than recouped in the increase in value of a restored
    DARK SANDS
    , Style B original movie poster.

    We believe that the original movie poster Half Sheet of
    DARK SANDS
    ,
    Style B
