Cagney ...Sheridan ...O'Brien!"; about a man who runs a fruit plantation in a banana republic in Central America, and he hires an old pal to help him, but that causes problems both financially and romantically) starring James Cagney ("goes native!"), Ann Sheridan ("goes after him!"), Pat O'Brien ("goes after 'em both!"), Andy Devine, Helen Vinson, Jerome Cowan, George Tobias, and George Reeves

Important Added Info: Note that we know that this movie was given a quick re-release in 1942, when Warner Bros' top stars were all in the service and not making movies. But both the 1940 set and the 1942 set are not on linen finish cards, so it seems impossible to distinguish 1940 scene cards from 1942 scene cards (except for the 1942 title card, which has "re-released" in a box on it). If anyone has more information about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

Note that there is a stamp on the back that reads "FROM THE COLLECTION OF Michael R. Hawks", who most would consider the premier lobby card collector and expert in the world (and he is still an active collector, looking for the last few items he needs!). Also note that this card has a stamp on the back that indicates it came from the legendary "Cozy Theater" collection! Finally, 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: very good. Note that this card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
