Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (measures 11" x 14") (Learn More)

Meet Boston Blackie "(of 'Get-Rich-Quick Wallingford' fame)", the 1941 Robert Florey Massachusetts New York City spy detective mystery crime thriller ("Mystery over Coney Island!"; "Spies in a freak show!"; "Murder in the 'Tunnel of Love'!"; "Story and Screen Play by Jay Dratler") starring Chester Morris (in the title role as Boston Blackie), Rochelle Hudson, Richard Lane, Charles Wagenheim, Constance Worth, Thelma Joel (as the Bat Woman!), and Schlitze (best known for his role in Freaks; as Princess Betsy/Bird Woman; when Schlitze was in Barnum's freak show, he wore a dress-like garment and was called a woman, and that continued in this movie). Note that this is one of fourteen movies made in the 1940s with Chester Morris playing the fictional character "Boston Blackie", a former crook turned detective (there had been ten silent movies made in the 1920s), all of which were based on short stories by Jack Boyle. Note that this was the first of the series, and Columbia did not expect big things from it, so they only created a two-color one-sheet on its first release!
