Date Sold 9/27/2022Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 8 Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Cards (LCs; measure 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) East Side Kids, the 1940 Bob Hill New York City gang war romantic crime thriller ("Story and screenplay by William Lively") starring Vince Barnett, Dennis Moore, Leon Ames, Joyce Bryant, and "The Original East Side Kids" Hal E. Chester (billed as "Hally Chester"), Harris Berger, Frankie Burke, Donald Haines, and Eddie Brian. Apparently, this movie was Monogram Pictures' attempt to cash in on the huge success of "Dead End" and its sequels, and they cast Harris Berger, who had replaced Huntz Hall in the stage production of "Dead End" when Hall went to Hollywood, and they also cast Frankie Burke, who had played the young James Cagney in "Angels with Dirty Faces", apparently so that audiences would feel that this new cast of kids were somewhat recognizable, and they had the nerve to bill them as "The Original East Side Kids", although that didn't really mean anything. It is ironic that later on, Monogram picked up the "Dead End Kids" series after the major studios had lost interest, and called them the "Bowery Boys", and had great success with that series!

Important Added Info: Note that we were consigned a collection of posters and lobby cards from movies related to the Dead End Kids and the many sequel groups they appeared in, like the Bowery Boys. These were collected by one person in the 1970s, and it would take a lifetime to reassemble this collection, but all of these 160 items (which include many lobby card sets in single auctions) will have new owners when these auctions end! Condition: good. Each of the cards have varying amounts of creases, scuff marks and smudges scattered in various areas (see our images). Each has a number written in pen at bottom.
