Auction History Result 7b0782 MEET NERO WOLFE TC 1936 Edward Arnold, Lionel Stander as Archie Goodwin, incredibly rare! Date Sold 8/27/2024 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Meet Nero Wolfe, the 1936 Herbert J. Biberman detective murder mystery melodrama (based on the novel by Rex Stout) starring Edward Arnold (in the title role as Nero Wolfe), Lionel Stander (as Archie Goodwin), Joan Perry, Victor Jory, Dennie Moore, John Qualen (as Olaf, who replaces Fritz from the books!), Rita Hayworth (super young, billed as "Rita Cansino"), and Martha Tibbetts. Note that Rex Stout started writing the super popular Nero Wolfe detective novels in 1934, and in 1936, this movie was made, starring Edward Arnold in the title role. The following year, "The League of Frightened Men" was made with Walter Connolly taking over the part. But no more sequels were made, perhaps because Rex Stout was not happy with the movies, or perhaps there was another reason. In the 1970s, there was an Italian TV series, and someday someone will do justice to this wonderful series of books in a movie or TV adaptation! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this title card, and that was 6 years ago. That example has now been reconsigned to us, so this is still the only example we have ever auctioned! 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: good to very good. There is a faint diagonal crease in the top right of the image, running across the woman's forehead (see our image). There is also a pencil mark in the background to the left of her chest. There are some faint smudges and a few pinholes in the borders, with a very tiny tear in the left of the bottom blank border. 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
