King Solomon's Mines (Gaumont British, 1937).
<B>King Solomon's Mines (Gaumont British, 1937).</B></I> One Sheet (27" X 41"). The first of three talkie versions of H. Rider Haggard's adventure novel "King Solomon's Mine"<I> </B></I>was produced by British Gaumont. While Cedric Hardwicke plays the nominal leading role of explorer Alan Quartermaine, top billing goes to African-American singing-star Paul Robeson, who plays dauntless native- guide Umbopa. This beautiful stone litho American one sheet produced for 20th Century Fox, the distributors of this British film, has had slight paper loss in the right side of the upper horizontal fold within the yellow field and border. There was stressing along the top vertical foldline and wear within the area of the two centerpoints. There were pinholes in all the corners. The restoration has addressed all of the issues and the poster displays as near mint. Fine/Very Fine on Linen. ****<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
