Auction History Result 6s060 KEY LARGO signed LC #8 R1956 by Lauren Bacall, who's close up with Humphrey Bogart, rare! Date Sold 5/27/2018 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. A 1956 Re-Release Theatrical Autographed Movie Lobby Card #8 (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Key Largo, the 1948 John Huston crime film noir ("Killer against killer, gun to gun, on the hot spot of the Florida Keys!"; "A cast as explosive as its story!"; "You'll see the performances of your life in the hit of their lives!"; set in the Florida Keys during a hurricane!; based on the hit play by Maxwell Anderson) starring Humphrey Bogart, Edward G. Robinson, Lauren Bacall, Lionel Barrymore, Claire Trevor (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film), Thomas Gomez, John Rodney, Dan Seymour, Harry Lewis, and Marc Lawrence. Note that this was the final movie in which Humphrey Bogart co-starred with Lauren Bacall. They first met during the filming of "To Have and Have Not" in 1944, and then were married in 1945. They re-teamed for "The Big Sleep" in 1946, and then made "Dark Passage" the following year. They teamed again in for this movie in 1948, but they did not make another movie together, likely having a lot to do with their having two children. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card has been personally autographed (signed) by Lauren Bacall! Our consignor was told by the person he bought this card from that it came from the Leonard Sorgi collection, but he does not have a certificate of authenticity, and the card does not have any inscription or a stamp on the back, which many of the Sorgi items have (but not all). We think it is extremely likely the autograph is authentic. Note that Dominant Pictures released many classic Warner Bros. movies in 1956. For each movie, they made a duotone one-sheet and a set of four duotone lobby cards. Most of those one-sheets and lobby cards are readily obtainable, but the lobby cards from THIS re-release are extremely rare (we have only previously auctioned two of these 1956 re-release lobby cards). 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. As is true of all the signed items we are currently auctioning, we give every buyer 30 days in which to review what they purchased and they can return any item as long as it is within 30 days of the end of the auction. On non-signed items, we give a "lifetime guarantee" on everything we auction, but on signed items, we give the above modified guarantee of 30 days after the auction closes. Condition: very good to fine. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
