Note:   This vintage poster is in  exceptionally nice condition.  Note in particular the colors are bright.  Most of these you will see on the market will have faded colors like on the credits which appear faded orange, almost yellow.  On this gem you can see the credits are closer to strong red.   Hence, all the other colors you can compare to other posters like the reddish fire torch the Duke is swinging.

If you're a fan of the Duke, this dramatic one sheet with evocative artwork by Reynold Brown is a "must have."

Aside from Wayne himself, who plays Davy Crockett, the all-star cast includes Richard Widmark, Laurence Harvey, Frankie Avalon, and Chill Wills.
