An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Torchy Blane in Panama, the 1938 William Clemens Central America detective reporter romantic mystery crime thriller sequel ("A new Torchy! ..up to her old tricks!"; "Based upon the characters created by Fredrick Nebel"; one of a series featuring the same character) starring Lola Lane (in the title role as Torchy Blane), Paul Kelly, Tom Kennedy, Anthony Averill, George Regas, and Larry Williams. Note that the first Torchy Blane movie was made in 1937, called "Smart Blonde", and it starred Glenda Farrell in the lead role. There were a total of nine Torchy Blane movies. Farrell played the lead in seven of them. In two of the ones near the end of the series, Jane Wyman and Lola Lane filled in for Farrell, perhaps because she had other commitments. The series only lasted for two years, but was quite popular. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this was printed by the "other company". This was a company in the Midwest that from roughly 1936 to roughly 1941 printed its own one-sheets and lobby card sets (and a very few inserts and half-sheets) for three major studio movies (Warner Brothers, Paramount and United Artists, but no other studios). The posters and lobby cards are from the original release of the movie, and almost always have completely different artwork from the regular studio release. They never have the name of the releasing studio on the poster or any of the lobby cards. Sometimes, "other company" posters or lobby cards have images that are the equal of those from the regular studio release posters or lobby cards! Condition: very good to fine. The card is in pretty nice condition and it has no tape whatsoever on the front or back, and it has never had any restoration of any kind! Learn More about condition grades
