At the Villa Rose (released in the U.S. in 1941 as "House of Mystery"), the 1940 Walter Summers English jewel thieves crime murder mystery melodrama ("From the novel by A.E.W. Mason", the author of "The Four Feathers"; about a gang of thieves who kill a wealthy woman to rob her, but then they discover that she has hidden her jewels where they can't find them, so they bring in a spiritualist to locate them, and they get the idea to blame the murder on the spiritualist as well!) starring Kenneth Kent (billed as "Keneth Kent"), Judy Kelly, Peter Murray-Hill, Walter Rilla, and Ruth Maitland
Important Added Info: Note that from the 1910s through the 1950s, lobby card sets were sent in brown bags that had the names of the movie and credits printed on the outside. The purpose of the bag was to protect the lobby cards, and they served that purpose well! Since the vast majority of lobby card sets get broken up and sold by the individual card, few of these original printed brown bags survive, except in the cases where someone preserved the entire set with the bag. We don't know if there are "brown bag collectors", but it certainly seems that the printed brown bag from legendary movies would be the most desirable, and ones from lesser movies would have lesser value!
