Auction History Result w237 JOSETTE OF NEW ORLEANS #3 movie lobby card '50s sexy girl murdered Date Sold 5/15/2007Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) Josette of New Orleans, the 1958 Joseph Lee Miami Florida crime murder thriller sexploitation melodrama ("Sultry! Sexy! Sensational!") starring Lili St. Cyr (in the title role as Josette), John Loder, Richard Benedict, Barry Douglas, Lawrence Kerr, Kate Murtagh, Rosemary Pettit, and Guy Rennie. Note that this movie was filmed in Miami, Florida in 1953, and apparently, Republic Pictures was considering releasing it! But it could not pass the censors (because of "unacceptable costume and dance motion"), and Republic tried for a while to get it re-shot or re-cut so that it could pass, but they eventually gave up in 1955. In 1956, an executive from Columbia Pictures showed interest in it, but again, it was rejected. Finally, it was released in 1958 by an independent company. Note that in the movie, Lili St. Cyr plays a girl named Josette who moves from New Orleans to Miami, where she gets involved with gangsters. One of them gets her a career as a dancer, who is renamed Lili St. Cyr! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: NOTE: Most lobby cards from before 1940 (and some from after that date) did not have individual lobby card numbers like later lobby cards (those printed after the advent of NSS in 1940) did. So we have arbitrarily assigned numbers to unnumbered lobby cards, only when we sell more than one from a set, so that there is a convenient way to tell different scenes apart. (Note that we do not use #1, because this is commonly used to signify the title card). The exception to this is sets of cards that did not have title cards. Condition: good to very good. There is brown paper tape on the back of the top and right borders. There are smudges on all four borders and some pinholes in the center of the top and bottom borders.
