Complete Set of 8 Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Cards (measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) Reprisal!, the 1956 George Sherman Native American Indian lynching melodrama ("The night the town went hunting... WITH A ROPE!"; "'He couldn't have done it... ...he was with me last night - all night!'"; "You're in trouble mister... Right up to your neck!..."; "...you made one mistake - you wanted to live your own life, with your own woman, in a town where you had to join the pack - or else. And now the mob with the rope is coming for you!"; "A hanging tree at one end of town... and a wanton girl in jeopardy at the other..."; "Out of a best-seller... Startling screen drama!"; "A best-seller lashes new paths of fury across the screen!"; "From the Novel by Arthur Gordon"; a wild story of a "half-breed", half Native American and half white, man who "passes" for white because Native Americans couldn't own a ranch, but when local men find out about it, they lynch his white wife, and he sets out to get revenge by killing the men responsible) starring Guy Madison, Felicia Farr, Kathryn Grant, Michael Pate, Edward Platt, and Otto Hulett. Note that the original source novel (which was based on a real case in then modern day Georgia) involved a black man whose white wife was lynched and he sought revenge. Apparently, this was too controversial for Hollywood, and the story was shifted in time and place to Oklahoma in the Old West, and the lead character became a "half-breed" Native American! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: very good. Each card has a Canadian censor stamp in the image (no faces are affected in any of the cards). Most of the cards have some staining, pinholes, creases, and/or smudges in the borders (some extend into the image). Two of the cards had the lef. Note that it is extremely time-consuming to individually describe the condition of each lobby card in a set of eight. Because of the large number of sets we sell, we will only note more significant defects in each individual card. We will NOT note every tiny border tear, stain, or pinhole. We provide an overview of the general condition of the cards above. You can look at our scan of all eight cards below for additional information as to the condition of specific cards, but if you can't place a bid based on our description above and our scan below, please do not e-mail asking additional questions about condition.
