An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (Learn More) Paroled from the Big House, the 1938 Elmer Clifton action crime thriller ("Crime marches to inevitable doom"; "Organized crime makes its final stand!"; "A screaming defi [sic] to the underworld!"; from the "Crime Marches On!" series of movies; produced by J.D. Kendis as "Jay Dee Kay Productions") starring Jean Carmen, Richard Adams, George Eldredge, Ole Olsen (billed as "Ole Oleson"), and Gwen Lee. Note that producer J.D. Kendis was one of the legendary pioneers of early low-budget movies (often with large doses of sex, drugs, bad girls, and all sorts of low-life activities!). Because his movies were given limited releases around the country, often playing for years in their first release, it is difficult to know if posters from his movies are surely from the very first year of release, or if they are from a later re-release. In the case of this movie, we have learned much more about the history of it. Apparently, this originally was a true sexploitation movie, with nude scenes and strippers. However, a year later, in 1939, the movie was re-cut and re-released as "Main Street Girl" (and at least in some markets it was called "Main Street Girls"), which removed all of the nudity and turned it into a regular crime melodrama! Unfortunately, it seems that the original version no longer exists, because it is the re-cut version that has been widely distributed, sometimes under either the original title or one of the re-release titles, "Main Street Girl". We have auctioned items with the original title that may or may not be from the original 1938 release, and we believe that the items that say "Main Street Girl" and "Main Street Girls" are from the 1939 re-cut version, but they may or may not be from that version's 1939 first release. Therefore, there is great uncertainty as to the release date of posters with any of these three titles, so bear that in mind before bidding on these posters!
