An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Only Angels Have Wings, the classic 1939 Howard Hawks romantic love triangle pilot airplane aviation adventure thriller ("Together for the first time"; "Each day a rendezvous with peril... each night a meeting with romance!"; a wild story of a showgirl arriving in a mythical tiny South American country where a cynical American expatriate runs an airplane mail delivery service which involves treacherous plane flights over the Andes; there are other pilots who risk their lives and other romantic involvements, and the plot is really complicated, but the movie moves quickly, and it has a great cast, and is considered one of Howard Hawks' very best movies) starring Cary Grant, Jean Arthur, Thomas Mitchell, Rita Hayworth, Richard Barthelmess, Don 'Red' Barry, Noah Beery Jr., Miisa Sierra, Allyn Joslyn, and Sig Ruman. Note that you almost never see major Hollywood movies with two extremely attractive female leads who are fan favorites, but this one had both Jean Arthur, who had been acting for many years, but was at the height of her popularity, and Rita Hayworth, who would soon become one of America's most favorite sexy actresses!

Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this great scene card, and that was 7 years ago, when it sold for $239 in "good" condition! 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. Condition: fair to good. The card has darkened somewhat, typical of Columbia lobby cards of this period. There is marker writing in the top background areas (it looks like someone might have put the stars' names above their heads). It has faded, and we don't know if that was from someone trying to erase it. There is a scratch in Grant's cheek that extends into his shirt, with another scratch to the left of that in the top of his shirt. There are some tiny staple holes in the middle left, including in the top of Arthur's hair and in the right of the main image of Arthur, also in her hair. Obviously, this great card can be restored, but bear the above in mind and look closely at our super-sized image before bidding on it. Learn More about condition grades
