Auction History Result 4g232 FIGHT NEVER ENDS 2 movie lobby cards '49 "The Brown Bomber" Joe Louis, Ruby Dee! Date Sold 3/19/2009 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 2 Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Cards (LCs; measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) The Fight Never Ends, the 1948 Joseph Lerner boxing sports crime thriller ("A story as powerful as the Brown Bomber himself!!"; "Slums Romance Crime Delinquency"; "Delinquency Romance Slums Crime"; a movie greatly improved by the presence of the real life heavyweight boxing champion, Joe Louis) starring Joe Louis, Ruby Dee, The Mills Brothers, Harrell Tillman, Emmett 'Babe' Wallace, and Gwendolyn Tynes. Note that this movie was released by Alexander Releasing Corp. in 1948, and it had a limited release, and poster material from that release is rare. The rights to the movie were purchased by Toddy Pictures in 1949, who printed new posters and lobby cards with their name on them (but interestingly, we have auctioned a pressbook that was printed with the Alexander information and overwritten with Toddy information, making it very likely that Toddy bought the rights to it early on, perhaps even during its first run, which they did with other movies from small black studios, and certainly this movie would have been extremely popular, given its star!). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: very good. There is a "Toddy Pictures Company" ink pad stamp at lower right on both cards. Note that these lobby cards have no tape whatsoever on the front or back, and they have never had any restoration of any kind! Learn More about condition grades
