Auction History Result 5a0073 THEY DRIVE BY NIGHT mini WC 1940 Humphrey Bogart, George Raft, Ann Sheridan, Lupino, rare! Date Sold 7/12/2020 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Mini Movie Window Card (WC; measures 8" x 14" [20 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) They Drive By Night (released in England as "The Road to Frisco"), the 1940 Raoul Walsh trucker romantic love triangle action melodrama ("No picture in 1940 will have bigger thrills!"; "From a Novel by A.I. Bezzerides"; about truckers and their love lives; it stole part of its plot from "Bordertown"!) starring George Raft, Ann Sheridan, Ida Lupino, Humphrey Bogart, Alan Hale Sr., Gale Page, Roscoe Karns, John Litel, Charles Halton, Charles C. Wilson, George Tobias, and Henry O'Neill. Note that movies rarely have top stars in all four lead roles (other than MGM movies of the 1930s and early 1940s, because they had so many such stars that they could afford to do this), but this movie is kind of a rare exception. We say "kind of" because Humphrey Bogart and Ida Lupino were not yet top stars when they made this movie, but the very next movie they made was "High Sierra", which did help elevate both of them to greater stardom!

Condition: fine. The mini window card is printed on the "linen-like" paper that Warner Bros used at this time. Remarkably, it is not at all fragile, and it has hardly darkened at all, which almost always occurs with these mini window cards (and lobby cards) printed on this special paper. It has surely survived in as good condition as one could hope! Learn More about condition grades
