An Undated (probably 1930s) Re-Release Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Blue Steele, the 1934 Robert N. Bradbury robbery cowboy western (in the fifth of fourteen Lone Star Westerns with John Wayne) starring John Wayne, Eleanor Hunt, George 'Gabby' Hayes, Edward Peil Sr., Yakima Canutt, and George Cleveland NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that lobby cards from 1930s John Wayne Lone Star westerns are extremely rare (in some cases almost as rare as the posters, which is very unusual for any 1930s movies!). Perhaps next-to-no theaters ordered lobby cards for these B-western movies. Only a very few lobby cards that solely list Lone Star have ever surfaced, and some of those are 1940s re-releases, but some of them seem to surely be from the original 1934 release. In 1935, Monogram acquired the rights to these earlier John Wayne Lone Star westerns and re-released them somewhere between 1935 and 1939, but no one I am aware of has been able to date them any more closely. These "Monogram" lobby cards have both Lone Star and Monogram on them, and they are also incredibly rare! IN THE CASE OF THIS MOVIE, WE HAVE NEVER AUCTIONED A FIRST RELEASE LONE STAR LOBBY CARD, AND WE HAVE ONLY PREVIOUSLY AUCTIONED ONE LONE STAR/MONOGRAM CARD (and that was the same example as this card, which has been re-consigned to us, so it is still the only Lone Star/Monogram card we have auctioned). 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: good. There is light scuffing in the right of the image that extends over Wayne's credit. There are creases, scuffs, and a few tiny tears around the edges of the card, and there is brown paper tape on the back of two borders. Learn More about condition grades
