Robinson searches for The Magic Bullet! Date Sold 10/14/2018Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Dr. Ehrlich's Magic Bullet (also released as "The Magic Bullet" and "The Story of Dr. Ehrlich's Magic Bullet"), the 1940 William Dieterle (this is one of five biographical movies Dieterle directed for Warner Bros) historical biography melodrama (about of Dr. Paul Ehrlich, the doctor who did not consider it immoral to search for a drug that would cure syphilis) starring Edward G. Robinson (in the title role as Dr. Paul Ehrlich), Ruth Gordon (in her second credited movie role!), Otto Kruger, Donald Crisp, Maria Ouspenskaya, Montagu Love, Donald Meek, and Henry O'Neill. Note that the screenplay for this movie was partially written by John Huston, "From an idea by Norman Burnside". Also note that we have seen movie paper from this title under all three titles given above, and it is quite possible that one or two of them are from re-releases only (especially because first release lobby cards from this movie were on a linen finish, typical of Warner Bros. lobby cards in the late 1930s and into the beginning of the 1940s. So if any of the titles are only seen on non-linen cards, then they would be from a re-release only). If anyone can sort this out for us, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

Marty was hired in 1972 to evaluate the entire collection of W. Ward Marsh (1893-1971), who was the film critic for the Cleveland Plain Dealer newspaper from 1919, until his retirement in 1970. In 1919 Marsh wrote his first of 23,000 movie reviews for the Plain Dealer. Marsh died less than a year after his retirement in 1970. His library, and photographic and memorabilia archives were given to the proprietor of Cleveland's finest bookstore. Marty Davis was the first person with a background in film history and collectibles to examine the archives. He worked for three to four hours a day, for six months, and his compensation was his pick of the archives. This still is from the W. Ward Marsh archives, and it was stamped on the back by Marty Davis to indicate that it came from this legendary collection. Condition: good. Learn More about condition grades
