The Saint in New York, the 1938 Ben Holmes detective crime mystery thriller ("The man whose daring deeds made daily headlines in his one-man war on crime!"; "Daring hero of a dozen novels at war with Gangland's overlords"; "From the Novel by Leslie Charteris"; "Screen play by Charles Kaufman and Mortimer Offner") starring Louis Hayward (in the title role as Simone Templar aka The Saint), Kay Sutton, Sig Ruman, Jonathan Hale, and Jack Carson. Note that this was the first of the "Saint" movies made by RKO, based on Leslie Charteris' classic character, The Saint (the only one with Louis Hayward, because afterwards, George Sanders took over). However, Charteris often disagreed with any story changes made by RKO and with Sanders' interpretation of his character. Because of this (and to save on royalty fees), the 1941 film "The Saint in Palm Springs" was the last of the series produced by RKO. Instead, they made "The Gay Falcon", which obviously starred the exact same character, but with the name changed (and there were many more in that series). Mr. Charteris threatened to sue RKO over this but the matter was settled out-of-court, and in 1953, RKO handled U.S. distribution for the English film "The Saint's Return" (also known as "The Saint's Girl Friday"), which starred Louis Hayward, who had played The Saint in the first RKO movie! George Sanders starred in four movies as The Falcon. After the fourth movie, the role of The Falcon was passed from George Sanders (who apparently had tired of this role, and wanted to leave) to Tom Conway (they played brothers in a movie called "The Falcon's Brother", and in real life they were brothers!; it had George Sanders' character killed, and his brother, played by Tom Conway, shows up and solves his murder, and becomes the "new" Falcon; and Conway went on to make a total of twelve Falcon movies).

Important Added Info: Note that when Spanish heralds have printing on the back, we picture both sides, but when they are blank on the back, we only picture the front.

Note that we are currently offering a collection of 316 Spanish heralds, and this is far and away the best collection of these we have ever offered! It covers many decades and genres with many very popular titles. Please note that Spanish heralds sometimes are found with theater information on the back, and sometimes they are not printed on the back. Sometimes the ones with printing on the back have some "bleed through" to the front, especially in the light colored areas. If one of these heralds have noticeable bleed through, then we downgrade the condition (depending on how distracting or noticeable it is) even if the herald is otherwise in excellent condition (and it may be that all known examples of that herald have printing on the back, so it may only be found that way). Please look at our super-sized image of heralds that have printing on the back to see how much it affects the front (if at all). When you look at the super-sized image, you may notice that the image appears somewhat "blurry". This is because we are taking a small herald and blowing up the image so that you can see the condition, but in the process, the image can become slightly distorted or blurry, so please realize that this is only the image, and not the herald itself.
