The Green Hornet (Universal, 1938). One Sheet
<B>The Green Hornet (Universal, 1939).</B></I> One Sheet (27" X 41") Advance. Without a doubt, this is one of the hardest serial one sheets to acquire. This thirteen chapter serial, based on the immensely popular radio show, pits a crime-fighting publisher against the forces of the underworld. Donning his disguise and accompanied by his assistant Kato, the Green Hornet takes on a racketeer menacing the city. Kato was originally created as a Japanese martial arts expert, but with the unpopularity of the Japanese due to the war, his nationality was changed to Korean. This poster had some chips off of the borders and minor tears in the edges. It also had a large tear in the top that went down into the "13 Action-Thrill Episodes" box. Individual duo-tone chapter sheets are very scarce on this title, but this full color sheet for the entire serial is unheard of. If you're a serial collector, this poster is not to be missed! Very Good/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>)
