Date Sold 12/21/2023Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Invisible Stripes, the 1939 Lloyd Bacon crime prison ex-convict family relationship romantic melodrama ("Three men and a girl ...bound by invisible ties - branded by Invisible Stripes"; "From an Original Story by Jonathan Finn"; "Based on the Book by Warden Lewis E. Lawes"; about an ex-convict who gets out of jail and wants to go straight, but his former buddies try to drag him back into a life of crime) starring George Raft ("Tougher than in 'Each Dawn I Die'"; "The crook who wanted to go straight - but couldn't!"), Jane Bryan ("Greater than in 'We Are Not Alone'"; "The girl who promised to wait - but didn't!"), William Holden ("More amazing than in 'Golden Boy'"; "The kid who tried to be dishonest - but couldn't!"), Humphrey Bogart ("He thought he was smart enough - but wasn't!"), Flora Robson ("She tried to guide her sons - but couldn't!"), Paul Kelly, Henry O'Neill, Lee Patrick, Frankie Thomas, and Leo Gorcey. Note that George Raft naturally got top billing (he was coming off of "Each Dawn I Die" with James Cagney) and Jane Bryan got second billing (she was also in "Each Dawn I Die" and had made an impression in "We Are Not Alone"). William Holden got third billing (he had just made a sensational debut in "Golden Boy"). Poor Humphrey Bogart was given a distant fourth billing (in spite of his sensational performance in "The Petrified Forest"), far smaller than that of his three co-stars, and equal to that of fifth billed Flora Robson! It would take a couple more years before Bogart moved to the first rank of Warner stars! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: 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. The card has darkened, typical of Warner Bros. linen lobby cards of this period. There are creases, tears, and tiny bits of surface paper loss around the edges, with water staining at top center. The back of the card is lightly stained throughout, but it has little effect on the front. There is a 1 1/2" tear at top center and someone put glue over that area. Please look at our super-sized images to get a good sense of the exact condition of this card. Learn More about condition grades
