Item Description
Original release 27x41" one-sheet poster for the 1955 Columbia Pictures 15-chapter serial starring John Hart as Captain Africa, "Mighty Jungle Avenger." This was the long-awaited sequel to Columbia's 1943 "The Phantom" (see item #2390). Produced by Sam Katzman who refused to pay King Features their royalty demands and changed the name to "Captain Africa." The 1943 Phantom still appeared in this serial via a vast amount of stock footage. This poster is for Chapter 8 "The Bridge In The Sky!" and at lower left is inset photo scene of gun-wielding man ready to shoot. Rest of poster features choice art including very large image of Captain Africa holding guns plus additional action scenes and jungle animal images. Poster has .25" chip at bottom center margin and lt. margin/fold crease intersections wear but if framed, would display Exc. w/fresh appearance and vibrant color.
