Auction History Result 6p1340 ARSENE LUPIN herald 1932 master thief John Barrymore & brother Lionel Barrymore, rare! Date Sold 6/4/2024 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Herald (measures 4 1/2" x 5 3/4" [11 x 15 cm]; 4 pages) (Learn More) Arsene Lupin, the classic 1932 Jack Conway France master thief crime thriller (based on the novel by Maurice Leblanc) starring John Barrymore (in the title role as Arsene Lupin), Lionel Barrymore (in one of their few movies together), Karen Morley, John Miljan, and Tully Marshall. One of the great strengths of the movie is the interactions between the master thief and the detective who wants so badly to catch him, and it is made even greater by the fact that they are played by real life brothers! Note that Arsene Lupin is one of the two most legendary French crime figures, the other being Fantomas. Arsene Lupin was introduced in 1905 and Fantomas in 1911. Unlike Fantomas, who would do anything to get what he wanted, including murder, Arsene Lupin was a "gentleman thief", who did not hurt the people he robbed, and was kind of a "Robin Hood"! There have been a number of different Arsene Lupin movies over the years. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this herald, and those were 22 and 23 years ago! Note that we were recently consigned an excellent collection of heralds! We auctioned the first 30 of these in our April Major Auction, and all but four of those sold for between $2,012 and $110! Now we continue with another 40 heralds from this collection (in 40 separate auctions), and we will continue auctioning 40 of them every four weeks until they are all auctioned. There is only one of each herald, and many of them are quite rare, so if you don't purchase one, it may be many years before you see it at auction again! Condition: very good.
