Blystone crime thriller ("It's tops in Cagney entertainment"; "James Cagney at his best!"; "From the Johnny Cave Stories in the Saturday Evening Post by James Edward Grant"; about the "New York Department of Weights and Measures", which was in charge of making sure the public didn't get cheated on the weight of goods; Cagney is the brash new head of it, who gets the job after the old head is hospitalized for not "playing ball"; Cagney takes on everyone: the crooks who cheat the public, and the crooked politicians who take bribes to let them do it!) starring James Cagney, Mae Clarke, James Burke, Edward Brophy, and Henry Kolker. Of course, this movie reunited James Cagney with Mae Clarke, the actress that had hit in the face with a grapefruit in Public Enemy! Perhaps this was his way of apologizing to her, by co-starring with her! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that these cards are marked "Color - Glos" at the bottom, and yet they are clearly NOT Color Glos lobby cards! Actual Color Glos lobby cards were, as the name indicated, printed in color on glossy thin paper. Since these are re-issue lobby cards, perhaps they used the original plates from the Color Glos cards, but reproduced them on regular lobby card paper in one color. Also note that the cards measure 11 1/4" x 14 1/4" (for unknown reasons). Finally, note that all of the cards were folded over just below and just to the right of the central image (again, for unknown reasons). Condition: good. Learn More about condition grades
