The Stratton Story, the 1949 Sam Wood romantic Major League baseball sports melodrama ("This is the true story of Monty Stratton who was on the way to Fame and Fortune when Fate stepped in. It's the drama of his come-back, a wonderful story of romance and courage, packed with fun and thrills. It's also the story of that girl he met on a blind date!"; "The True Romance of The Year"; about Chicago White Sox baseball pitcher Monty Stratton, who lost his leg; with an Academy Award winning screenplay by Douglas Morrow) starring James Stewart (Jimmy Stewart; in the title role as Monty Stratton), June Allyson, Frank Morgan, Agnes Moorehead, Bill Williams, Gene Bearden (as himself), and Holmes Herbert (uncredited as the doctor).

Important Added Info: Note that the back of this card was overprinted with a solid rectangular pattern. This was commonly done in the 1950s so that old lobby cards could be re-used as "frames" for 8x10 stills. This IS an original lobby card.

Condition: very good. The back of the card was overprinted, and there are tape stains from where a still was taped to the back of the card, but it has very little effect on the front.
