Auction History Result 8a014 FALCON STRIKES BACK TC 1943 murder menaces every move as Tom Conway stalks a silent killer! Date Sold 8/4/2019 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) The Falcon Strikes Back, the 1943 Edward Dmytryk detective crime mystery thriller ("Murder menaces every move... as the Falcon stalks a silent killer who leaves no clues!"; "Luxury hotel shrouded in terror - by a killer so crafty he pins murder on The Falcon, himself!"; "Based upon the character created by Michael Arlen") starring Tom Conway (in the title role as The Falcon), Harriet Hilliard, Jane Randolph, Edgar Kennedy, Cliff Edwards, Rita Corday, Richard Loo, Cliff Clark, Edward Gargan & Olin Howland. Note that this is one of twelve movies that starred Tom Conway as The Falcon. In the first three movies, George Sanders (who had previously played "The Saint" in a series of movies) played The Falcon, but he apparently tired of the role, and wanted to leave, and instead of ending the series, or having a new actor play the role, he passed it on to Tom Conway in the fourth movie, "The Falcon's Brother" (they played brothers in the movie and in real life they were brothers!) in a clever move, the script 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 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 had pinholes and some tiny paper loss around the edges. It had stains in the yellow area at middle left and some scuffs, smudges, and scratches scattered in the image. Overall, the card was in fair to good condition prior to restoration. A talented restorer gel backed the card (meaning they backed the card onto a gel material) and they then performed restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, so that the card still looks and feels like an original card (and it is!), with no backing at all. Given the card's defects described above, the restorer did a pretty good job, but you can see signs of the defects and the restoration, but the card displays pretty well (see our super-sized images to get a good sense of exactly how the card looks now).
