#CH099 - Gene Autry Loaded Pistols Movie Poster

I certainly didn't expect this. I found these buried in the stack of paper movie posters we had that came out of an old theatre. Vintage 1948 movie posters that say "World's Greatest Cowboy Gene Autry and Barbara Britton in Loaded Pistols " "World's Wonder Horse Champion". They are 13" tall. They also say "Hear Autry sing Loaded Pistols, Jim Crack Corn, When the Bloom is on the Sage, Boy from Texas, and Pretty Mary". The movie also starred Chills Wills. They are in great shape, but may have some very tiny edge tears and paper aging. Please note that these are old originals (like all of our merchandise). I've never seen these before anywhere and I doubt too many Gene Autry collectors will have one. Our price seems way too low to me, but what the heck. May have an small corner ding.

#TY554 - Crystal Eye Mrs. Santa Claus Doll Mask

These were part of a fad in the 1960s and 1970s. Kleenex had a promotion where you sent away for parts like this and they showed you how to make a doll. This one was just the head. There were several variations. People used this one to make Mrs. Santa Claus. These heads are about 4" tall and made of a rubbery plastic material that is bendable. The eyes are three dimensional plastic and sparkly (the carton they were in said doll masks with crystal eyes). I found them sealed in their original cellophane wrapping and they are in excellent like new condition. I'm sure you doll collectors out there will know more about these. We just found these in a warehouse very near here we have been trying to get in for 20 years!

#CH326-03 - Rare 1945 "The Gay Senorita" Poster Broadside

Vintage 13" tall paper movie poster/broadside from the 1945 movie, The Gay Senorita. The poster pictures Jinx Falkenburg and says that the Gay Senorita was the "most terrific tornado that ever crossed the border". "Gay" had a very different meaning during this time period, which makes the poster interesting. It's a rare poster. Please click the picture to see a more detailed image. Back in the day, when a new movie was going to play at the local theatre, there would be a guy who would run around town tacking these things on bulletin boards, telephone poles, fence posts, or anyplace else where they might be seen. Because most were outdoors, few have survived. Some will have small edge tears or roughness, but this is true of all paper movie broadsides, and they can easily be trimmed for framing. Although, a few small imperfections kind of adds to the look with these. Colors vary. We got them from the estate of famous dealer and friend Bob Secrist. He found them in the storage area of an old theatre up in Northeast Ohio.

##MUSICGD2030 - Grateful Dead Car Window Tour Sticker/Decal - Bear and VW Symbol

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image. Vintage 4 1/2" tall Grateful Dead sticker/decal. This one has a lot going on. There is a Grateful Dead bear wearing a necklace with a VW (Volkswagen) pendant hanging onto a ball which is landing in the ocean. The Volkswagen bus was considered part of the Grateful Dead mystique and "VW" showed up in a lot of the artwork. Circa 1992. These are high quality art decals that were made for car windows. I peeled the cover off for the picture. They are in mint condition and can still be used.

These Grateful Dead stickers/decals are old tour merchandise. I found them wrapped in plastic in boxes in master cases. They came from a distributor who sold them to tour vendors. The condition is pristine and they still will work as a car decal or window/mirror sticker. We found them packed away in storage boxes dated 1992 (many are older than that) and 1995 (year Jerry Garcia died). They are high quality artist renderings of Grateful Dead themes. Back in the day, the Dead did not monitor copyrights and that sort of thing, and in fact, at one point encouraged artists to do designs. The LA times explained it well “The Grateful Dead was famously lax in enforcing it’s intellectual property rights and trademarks, allowing fans to create their own designs using the band’s expansive iconography”. Since there was no serious monitoring or much concern back then, a lot of up and coming artists got involved in designing them. This is how some of them got their starts. Some of the sticker artists who designed these stickers went on to produce official licensed works for the Grateful Dead and other famous groups. These stickers include some by now famous designers including David Opie, and others. These 1995 and older stickers are very hard to find anymore.
