Gene Autry Blue Mountain Skies Poster c. 1939
For your consideration in this lot we have a re-release poster for Gene Autry's film Blue Montana Skies from 1939. The poster shows Gene Autry, June Storey, and Smiley Burnette across the top of the poster with snow covered mountains and Canadian Mounties on horse back in the back ground. The bottom of the poster shows Gene Autry as he holds five fur smugglers as gun point. The poster is marked "Gene Autry, under Blue Montana Skies, A Re-Release, With Smiley Burnette June Storey and Walt Shrum and his Colorado Hillbillies, Directed by B. Reeves Easton, A Republic Picture". The poster is nearly identical to the original release poster with the only difference being the "A Re-Release". The piece is set into a rustic wooden frame with a thin white border around the poster. The piece shows very good condition for its age with some minor wear. The frame measures 32 3/4" wide by 46 1/4" tall with the poster measuring 27 1/4" wide by 40 1/2" tall.
