Auction History Result 2h849 RACING LUCK 3 8x10 stills '35 William Boyd, Onest Conley, Barbara Worth, horse racing! Date Sold 11/1/2015 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 3 Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Stills (Learn More) Racing Luck, the 1935 Sam Newfield horse racing sports thriller starring William Boyd (billed as "Bill Boyd"), Barbara Worth, Ernest Hilliard, Esther Muir, George Ernest, and Onest Conley (a black African American actor who only appeared in a limited number of movies). Note that this is a VERY mysterious movie, because of how little we could find about its first release. The IMDb says it is a Republic movie, but the only lobby card we have ever had is from Winchester Pictures, and the only poster we have ever had (the three-sheet) does not have any distributor on it at all! We strongly suspect that the IMDb is wrong and that this movie is from Winchester Pictures, and we can't explain the extreme rarity of its posters. It seems definitely possible that the company Winchester Pictures might have gone out of business, and maybe the movie was sold to Republic Pictures at a later time. The biggest mystery is that Bill Boyd made this movie at the same time as his first Hopalong Cassidy movies, and was apparently released right after the first two Hopalong Cassidy movies. Perhaps Paramount Pictures didn't want this movie released at that same time. All this is guesswork, but it is certainly true that all movie paper from this early William Boyd movie is extremely rare! If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here.
