An Original Vintage Theatrical Autographed Movie Lobby Card #6 (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More)

The Fireball, the 1950 Tay Garnett roller skating derby sports action thriller ("Rooney runs riot in the toughest game of all!"; "Rooney runs riot on the Roller Race-ways!") starring Mickey Rooney, Pat O'Brien, Beverly Tyler, James Brown, Marilyn Monroe (extremely young, notice her extremely tiny billing!), Ralph Dumke, Bert Begley, Milburn Stone, Tom Flint, John Hedloe, and Glenn Corbett (billed as "introducing Glenn Corbett"). Note that when 20th Century-Fox realized what an amazing star they had in Marilyn Monroe (who was under contract to them), they gave her bit or small parts in many movies that they made in 1950 and 1951! She is fifth billed on the posters, but she is not pictured, because her part was so small.

Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card has been personally autographed (signed) by Mickey Rooney!

About the Collection this Item Comes From
Note that this item (and 56 others we are auctioning this week, each in its own auction) was consigned to us by an individual who owned a company that made movies and videos with famous celebrities in the 1980s and 1990s. The owner of the company would have the celebrities sign items from their famous films, and sometimes he would find second or third celebrities to autograph an item he already had gotten signed! In addition, he would ask celebrities he came in contact with if they had signed items from other stars that they would sell to him, and he purchased a number of items that way. He also would purchase unsigned items from the famed Larry Edmunds Bookshop in Los Angeles (to have the celebrities sign), and while he was doing that he would also purchase some of their signed items. So all of these 57 autographed items we are auctioning were either obtained in person, obtained from celebrities who obtained them in person, or obtained from the Larry Edmunds Bookshop, and we feel certain that the autograph(s) on this item is authentic! Note that each of the 57 items from this consignor all have this paragraph on them.

Condition: good to very good.
