Auction History Result 5f918 THIS GUN FOR HIRE LC R45 hired killer Alan Ladd pointing gun at man in wheelchair! Date Sold 5/26/2009 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. A 1945 Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (11x14; LC; measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) This Gun For Hire, the classic 1942 Frank Tuttle spy espionage counterfeiting murder crime film noir ("Killer without a conscience! Lover without a heart?"; "Based on the novel by Graham Greene") starring Veronica Lake (as a magician who does card tricks!), Robert Preston, Laird Cregar, Alan Ladd, Tully Marshall, Mikhail Rasumny, Marc Lawrence, Pamela Blake, Emmett Vogan, and Victor Kilian. Note that Alan Ladd was fourth billed in this movie (he had been in movies for several years, including in Citizen Kane, but he had mostly tiny roles), but this movie made him a major star. It is incredibly fortunate that the U.S. poster artist chose to feature only fourth-billed Ladd and first-billed Lake on the one-sheet, making it one of the most desirable U.S. posters! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: fair. There are many pinholes around the edges of the card and some in the center of the card. There is a 1" tear near the center of the bottom border and some tiny tears in the borders. There are many scuffs in the lower half of the image and some smudges and stains in the title area. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back of the card! Learn More about condition grades
