Auction History Result 9c0259 DARK COMMAND 4 LCs 1952 John Wayne, Walter Pidgeon, Claire Trevor, Roy Rogers! Date Sold 6/24/2021 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 4 Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Cards (LCs; measure 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The Dark Command, the 1940 Raoul Walsh Kansas post-Civil War cowboy western ("A drama of undying love"; about a band of renegade Confederate guerrillas who go around looting; loosely based on the real William Quantrill; they even named the character "William Contrell"!) starring Claire Trevor, John Wayne, Walter Pidgeon, Roy Rogers, George 'Gabby' Hayes, Porter Hall, Marjorie Main, and Raymond Walburn. Note that even though Roy Rogers had starred in many B-westerns at the time of the making of this movie, he was fourth billed, and was not pictured on any of the posters (except the insert and the style B 1SH [where he is barely visible!]), or the title lobby card (although he was pictured on one of the publicity stills, perhaps Republic was trying to distinguish this movie as an "A" picture, and did not want to give prominent billing to Roy Rogers, who they perceived as a "B" western star?). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: good to very good. Each of the cards has a few faint smudges and pinholes around the edges. The two cards pictured at left have a small amount of very slight discoloration in the right blank border only. The card pictured at lower right has a small tear and some surface paper loss in the upper left corner. The cards are otherwise in pretty nice condition and they have no tape whatsoever on the front or back, and they never have had any restoration of any kind! Learn More about condition grades
