Auction History Result 3t778 CASE OF THE CURIOUS BRIDE 3 LCs '35 Michael Curtiz, Warren William as Perry Mason, Lindsay! Date Sold 12/29/2015 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 3 Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Cards (LCs; measure 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The Case of the Curious Bride, the 1935 Michael Curtiz courtroom lawyer legal crime mystery thriller (based on the Perry Mason series of books by Erle Stanley Gardner) starring Warren William (as Perry Mason), Margaret Lindsay, Donald Woods, Claire Dodd (as Della Street), Allen Jenkins, Philip Reed, and Errol Flynn (in a bit part). Note that Warner Bros. purchased the rights to these characters in 1934, and the first movie in the series was "The Case of the Howling Dog" starring Warren William. There were three more Perry Mason movies that Warren William starred in (oddly, a different actress played Della Street in each of the four films). Also, in this movie, Donald Woods played a minor character, but in 1937, he would get to play Perry Mason! Allen Jenkins had played Perry Mason's adversary in the very first Perry Mason movie, "The Case of the Howling Dog", but here he plays "Spudsy", who is a comic detective, replacing Paul Drake from the books (and he repeated this role in the next movie). Finally, Errol Flynn plays a corpse on a slab earlier in this movie, and then late in the movie, he is in a two-minute flashback scene, and this is one of his first real roles! There were two other movies in the 1930s with other actors in the lead role (Ricardo Cortez and Donald Woods), and then of course, there was the classic TV show from 1957 to 1966 with Raymond Burr playing Perry Mason.
