Clark and Bradbury Foote"; an unusual story of a World War II veteran who had a brain injury during the war, which causes him blackouts, and he is found with his murdered wife, and he is convicted of killing her, but is sent to a mental hospital, and there he meets a beautiful psychiatrist who not only falls in love with him, but who decides he did not commit the murder, so she sets out to prove him innocent) starring Robert Taylor ("Tough"), Audrey Totter ("Tempting"), Herbert Marshall, Dorothy Patrick, H.B. Warner, and Warner Anderson. Note that in this movie, Robert Taylor (like other actors like Fred MacMurray and Dick Powell) reinvented himself as a noir hero!

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. We are doing something in this set of auctions we rarely do! A couple of years ago, we were approached by a very long time collector, and he asked us if he could give us an entire auction of single lobby cards by himself. We agreed, and held that auction in 2017, and later that same year, a different collector sent us a different group of 999 lobby cards and we repeated the process. Now we have a third such "single owner" collection. This one was originally assembled in Australia, which is why some of the cards have either Australian paper snipes attached or Australian ratings stamps (but many do not have them). This collection originally contained 1,100 cards, and we auctioned 100 of them in our March Major Auction, and now we are auctioning the remaining 999 in THIS set of auctions, and after this auction, there will be no more cards to be offered. As will immediately be evident when you look at the cards, many of them are from titles where you almost never see any lobby cards, so this is a rare opportunity to acquire many cards that almost never are offered for sale or at auction! Condition: good to very good. The card was used in Australia and there is an Australian rating stamp in one corner. There are pinholes and smudges around the edges, with pieces of tape on the back of the pinholes. See our super-sized images to get a good sense of the condition of this card.
