Auction History Result 1h614 LAWRENCE TIERNEY 8x10 still '45 head & shoulders portrait of the ultimate tough guy actor! Date Sold 7/25/2013 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Lawrence Tierney was an actor from the 1940s to the 2000s. Some of his movies include: Born to Kill, Dillinger, The Devil Thumbs a Ride, and many other 1940s and 1950s film noir tough guy roles! He was a true "tough guy" in real life, and scared almost everyone he encountered! Legend has it that when he guest-starred on "Seinfeld" in "The Jacket" episode as Elaine's father, he scared the cast so badly that they never had him back on (apparently he stole a butcher knife from Jerry's TV kitchen and hid it under his jacket and when Seinfeld confronted him about it, Tierney pretended that he was going to use the knife as a gag in reference to the movie Psycho!). Somehow he made it to the age of 82, tough as ever, passing away in 2002. Important Added Info: Note that Tierney was signed to a contract by RKO in 1943, but did not have much success there. In 1945, they lent him to Monogram Pictures, where he had major success starring in "Dillinger". This is a 1945 RKO publicity still that was used by a theater to promote him in Dillinger, and someone wrote his name and the movie title at the bottom of the still. Condition: good.
