Zanuck; based on a true story of a priest being murdered in Bridgeport, Connecticut in 1924; the police located a drifter nearby, and there was a rush to judgment to convict him of the crime, even though there was a lack of evidence connecting him to the murder; fortunately, a young lawyer in the District Attorney's office becomes convinced of the drifter's innocence, and sets out to prove it; to heighten the realism of the movie, director Elia Kazan gave it a semi-documentary look) starring Dana Andrews, Jane Wyatt, Lee J.

Important Added Info: Note that this card features an image of some tough guys standing in front of a theater and there are movie posters displayed from "Anna and the King of Siam" starring Linda Darnell! Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. We are doing something in this set of auctions we rarely do! A couple of years ago, we were approached by a very long time collector, and he asked us if he could give us an entire auction of single lobby cards by himself. We agreed, and held that auction in 2017, and later that same year, a different collector sent us a different group of 999 lobby cards and we repeated the process. Now we have a third such "single owner" collection. This one was originally assembled in Australia, which is why some of the cards have either Australian paper snipes attached or Australian ratings stamps (but many do not have them). This collection originally contained 1,100 cards, and we auctioned 100 of them in our March Major Auction, and now we are auctioning the remaining 999 in THIS set of auctions, and after this auction, there will be no more cards to be offered. As will immediately be evident when you look at the cards, many of them are from titles where you almost never see any lobby cards, so this is a rare opportunity to acquire many cards that almost never are offered for sale or at auction! Condition: good to very good. There are creases and faint smudges around the edges, with tape stains and surface paper loss on the back of the card. See our super-sized images to get a good sense of the condition of this card. Learn More about condition grades
