An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) Invisible Stripes, the 1939 Lloyd Bacon crime prison ex-convict family relationship romantic melodrama ("Three men and a girl ...bound by invisible ties - branded by Invisible Stripes"; "From an Original Story by Jonathan Finn"; "Based on the Book by Warden Lewis E. Lawes"; about an ex-convict who gets out of jail and wants to go straight, but his former buddies try to drag him back into a life of crime) starring George Raft ("Tougher than in 'Each Dawn I Die'"; "The crook who wanted to go straight - but couldn't!"), Jane Bryan ("Greater than in 'We Are Not Alone'"; "The girl who promised to wait - but didn't!"), William Holden ("More amazing than in 'Golden Boy'"; "The kid who tried to be dishonest - but couldn't!"), Humphrey Bogart ("He thought he was smart enough - but wasn't!"), Flora Robson ("She tried to guide her sons - but couldn't!"), Paul Kelly, Henry O'Neill, Lee Patrick, Frankie Thomas, and Leo Gorcey. Note that George Raft naturally got top billing (he was coming off of "Each Dawn I Die" with James Cagney) and Jane Bryan got second billing (she was also in "Each Dawn I Die" and had made an impression in "We Are Not Alone"). William Holden got third billing (he had just made a sensational debut in "Golden Boy"). Poor Humphrey Bogart was given a distant fourth billing (in spite of his sensational performance in "The Petrified Forest"), far smaller than that of his three co-stars, and equal to that of fifth billed Flora Robson! It would take a couple more years before Bogart moved to the first rank of Warner stars! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: good to very good. card has darkened slightly (typical of Warner Bros. linen cards of this period), but the card is not at all fragile; there is a diagonal crease in the top right corner and pinholes, creases, some small tears, and a few stains around the edges of the card; the image area of the card is in surprisingly nice condition!
