An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More)

Angels Wash Their Faces, the 1939 Ray Enright juvenile delinquent teen gang melodrama sequel ("From an idea by Jonathan Finn"; the sixth entry in the series, with Ronald Reagan stepping in to the kind of role previously played by Bogart, Cagney, and Garfield) starring Ann Sheridan, The Dead End Kids (including Leo Gorcey, Huntz Hall, Billy Halop, Bernard Punsly, and Gabriel Dell), Ronald Reagan, Bonita Granville, Frankie Thomas, Margaret Hamilton, Marjorie Main, and Henry O'Neill. Note that this was technically not a sequel to either "Dead End", "Crime School", or "Angels with Dirty Faces" (the three Dead End Kids movies which preceded this one), but it has the Dead End Kids, and a very familiar plot (in this one, Ann Sheridan is Frankie Thomas' sister, and Frankie is framed by a local mobster, and DA Ronald Reagan helps prove the boy's innocence).

Important Added Info: Note that 1939 first release lobby cards from this movie are incredibly rare! In all our years of auctioning, we have never before auctioned a single first release lobby card (and only five re-release lobby cards) until we were consigned this one! Note that this card has a stamp on the back that indicates it came from the legendary "Cozy Theater" collection! 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.

Note also that we were consigned a collection of posters and lobby cards from movies related to the Dead End Kids and the many sequel groups they appeared in, like the Bowery Boys. These were collected by one person in the 1970s, and it would take a lifetime to reassemble this collection, but all of these 160 items (which include many lobby card sets in single auctions) will have new owners when these auctions end!

Condition: very good. The card has slightly darkened, typical of Warner Bros. linen lobby cards of this period, but it is not at all fragile. Otherwise, it only has some minor creases and a few very tiny tears in the blank borders. Note that this card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
