Description

The Cisco Kid (Fox, 1931). One Sheet (28.5" X 41").
Based on an O'Henry short story called the "The Caballero's Way," the Cisco Kid would become one of the most popular characters in screen history. Warner Baxter won the second Best Actor Academy Award for his role as Cisco in In Old Arizona (1929) and this was the sound follow-up to that film. Reprising his role also from the 1929 film is Edmund Lowe as Sergeant Mickey Dunn, Cisco's friendly enemy. This beautiful stone litho poster is the first time offered in auction that we can find. Great portraits of Lowe and the beautiful Conchita Montenegro are seen below a wanted poster of the hero, the Cisco Kid. Also offered in another lot in this auction is the three sheet to the first appearance of the Cisco Kid in The Caballero's Way (1914). The poster had minor chipping in the upper and right border and minor wear and crossfold paper loss. The minor restoration makes the poster appear near mint. Very Fine on Linen.
