Burnett"; about a "perfect robbery" with a team of top professionals, but of course, everything unravels, partially through double-crosses; perhaps the best movie of its kind!) starring Sterling Hayden, Louis Calhern, Jean Hagen, James Whitmore, Sam Jaffe (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film), John McIntire, Marilyn Monroe, Marc Lawrence, Barry Kelley, Anthony Caruso, Teresa Celli, Brad Dexter, Don Haggerty, and Daniel Clarke NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this 1954 re-release title card, and only one in the last 20 years! Note that when this classic movie was first released in 1950, Marilyn Monroe was virtually unknown and so she received very low billing (but she WAS prominently pictured on the six-sheet, because she was sexy!). But when she shot to stardom, MGM re-released the movie with a new ad campaign featuring Monroe, with the tagline, "And this is the picture that first brought fame to MARILYN MONROE". Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. Condition: good to very good. The card was displayed in a frame, which caused it to slightly darkened, except for a thin strip around the edges of the blank borders. There is paper loss in the right of the top blank border and surface paper loss on the back of the middle left, with a pair of staple holes in the top left corner. Learn More about condition grades
