An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) Angels with Dirty Faces, the classic 1938 Michael Curtiz (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) romantic crime murder thriller melodrama (in this movie, quintessential tough guy Cagney is a hero to the Dead End Kids, and at the end his childhood pal, now a priest, asks him to be a coward as he is led to the electric chair to help keep those kids from following in his footsteps; "A story... mighty with the clash of men!

NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card is from the classic scene in this movie when Rocky Sullivan (Cagney) gives the kids a lot of money, and they buy new clothes and go to the local pool hall, and start gambling while shooting pool, splashing the money around, and then Pat O'Brien comes in and chastises them! Condition: fair to good. There is a light censor stamp in the bottom center of the image. There is paper loss in the top of the "P" of "PAT" at the bottom center of the card. There are areas of paper loss in the top corners and in the lower right border and there are creases, pinholes, and small tears in all the borders. The entire card has darkened somewhat, typical of Warner Bros. linen cards of this period. There are five tiny pieces of tape on the back of the borders, mending small tears. Certainly, this card has significant flaws, but the images of the stars are almost completely unaffected, and a talented restorer could paperback this card, and after proper restoration, the card will look great, and there will be little restoration within the image area!
