Description

Paradise Canyon (Monogram, 1935). Three Sheet (41" X 81"). The last of the "Lone Star Westerns" John Wayne made for Monogram in the early years of his career, this is probably the most action-packed. As undercover Federal agent John Wyatt, Wayne is on the trail of a counterfeiting ring operating near the Mexico/Arizona border. Legendary stuntman Yakima Canutt supplies much of the action in this picture; Wayne and Canutt would soon become good friends and would go on to appear in a number of pictures together. This stunning stone litho three sheet, considered by many to be Wayne's best from the 1930s, had a small tear in the top center border, crossfold separation, and fold wear, all of which has been expertly addressed with outstanding professional restoration. The result is an absolute treasure that will be a fabulous addition to any collection. Very Fine- on Linen.
