Plenty!") starring Alan Ladd ("Living the way he loves... with dynamite!"; in the title role as Salty O'Rourke), Gail Russell ("She knows Ladd's her man."), William Demarest, Bruce Cabot, Spring Byington, Stanley Clements ("'Stash' Clements... The beloved roughneck of 'Going My Way' has eyes on Ladd's kind of woman!"; "The tough Kid from 'Going My Way'"; "Riotous Roughneck of 'Going My Way'"), and Marjorie Woodworth NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that card #5 was used in a movie theater in Canada, and the entire "dead body" at the bottom of the card has been painted over (censored) with a dark paint! I know from long experience that this paint is the kind that bonds with the card and CAN'T be removed from the card without removing much of the ink underneath it, so this is a major defect (although some might think it is pretty amazing to realize the extent of censorship that was present at that time in Canada, where they would not allow dead bodies to be shown in advertising!) Condition: very good. Seven of the cards range from "very good" to "very good to fine", with mostly only minor border wear. Two of the cards (pictured at top left) have a 1/4" tear in the center of the bottom blank border. One of the cards has been censored . Learn More about condition grades
