An Original Vintage Theatrical English Front of House Movie Lobby Card (FOH LC; 8x10; measures 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm]) (Learn More)

The Triumph of Sherlock Holmes, the 1935 (released in the U.S. in 1939) Leslie S. Hiscott English crime mystery thriller ("Adapted from 'Valley of Fear' by the late Sir Arthur Conan Doyle") starring Arthur Wontner (as Sherlock Holmes), Lyn Harding, Leslie Perrins, Jane Carr, and Ian Fleming (NOT the creator of James Bond, but an Australian actor who appeared in 158 movies between 1926 and 1968; as Dr. Watson). Note that this was one of five movies in which Arthur Wontner played Sherlock Holmes. They were made between 1931 and 1937. The first four were made between 1931 and 1935 and were released in the U.S. soon after they were made. The fifth one, Murder at the Baskervilles, was released in England when it was made in 1937, but it was not released at that time in the U.S. However, after 20th Century-Fox and Universal Pictures had great success with their Sherlock Holmes movies starting in 1939, Murder at the Baskervilles was first released in the U.S. in 1941, by Astor Pictures (a company normally associated with re-releases, but in this case, it was the first release of this movie).

Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned a single U.S. lobby card and several 1940s Argentinean posters from this movie, and NO other movie paper, until we received this English front of house lobby card, which is a "country of origin" item for this English movie, and we are also currently auctioning a different English front of house lobby card in a separate auction.

Condition: good. There is some unevenness throughout the emulsion, but it is mostly only noticeable when the still is tilted to the light. There are pinholes and tiny stains in each corner, with some light scuffing scattered in the image area. Please look at our super-sized images to get a good sense of the condition of this still before placing a bid.
