An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm]) (Learn More) The Lost Patrol, the classic 1934 John Ford World War I (WWI) military adventure thriller melodrama ("Every woman living will love this staggering drama of living men!"; "Hearts that burn for women on the burning sands of Hell!"; "Brutal! Blazing! Glorious! It's great because it's real!"; "Glorious! Blazing!"; "The towering life triumph of John Ford who directed 'The Iron Horse', 'Arrowsmith', 'Men Without Women', 'Four Sons', and Pilgrimage'"; "From the story 'Patrol' by Philip MacDonald") starring Victor McLaglen, Boris Karloff, Wallace Ford, Reginald Denny, J.M. Kerrigan, Billy Bevan (one of the better Charlie Chaplin imitators of the time), Alan Hale Sr., Brandon Hurst, Douglas Walton, Sammy Stein, Howard Wilson, and Paul Hanson. Note that Sammy Stein was a professional football player in the NFL, playing there between 1929 and 1932. He then became a professional wrestler, and he then became a movie actor, appearing in 58 movies, almost always playing a bad guy, often a crook or an outlaw cowboy (likely one of the very few Jewish cowboys ever!).

Important Added Info: Note that this movie was given a quick re-release in 1939, and it can be hard to tell some poster material from the two releases apart. But the lobby cards are really easy to tell apart, because on the 1934 cards, the title is in the lower left, and on the 1939 cards, the title is in the upper right. This card is definitely a very rare 1934 original lobby card! Also note that we have been consigned a collection of early lobby cards that all were heavily trimmed (some with just the borders trimmed, but others trimmed to 8" x 10"). They are all from very rare titles, and certainly, they could be restored (or displayed as they are). One would obviously prefer finding an untrimmed example of this card, but one might wait a VERY long time to find that untrimmed example, but bear in mind this significant defect before bidding on this card, which has been trimmed and it now measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm]. Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. Condition: fair. The card has been heavily trimmed to 8" x 10", and there is a pinhole in the center of the top border, with slight tack stains in three corners. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
