Columbia Pictures Original Group of Three Scene Lobby Cards (11x14). Fine Plus Condition.

Original Columbia Pictures Group of Three Scene Lobby Cards (11x14) for the hallmark political drama, ALL THE KING'S MEN (1949) starring Broderick Crawford, John Ireland, Joanne Dru, and Mercedes McCambridge. The film was produced, directed, and written by Robert Rossen from the novel by Robert Penn Warren, based on the colorful life of Louisiana's infamous governor, Huey Long. Crawford plays Willie Stark, the character based on Long, who dreams of becoming a political populist. When he finally wins the election for governor, he tries to do all the good things he promised. But alas, his administration is based on bribes, payoffs, and intimidation from a private army of police and paid thugs. Crawford's lust for power is finally brought to an end when he is assassinated in the foyer of the state capitol. This classic political film created a breakout role for Crawford who won the Academy Award for Best Actor. McCambridge, in her debut playing Crawford's equally conniving aide, also won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. These original lobby cards - there are three in this group - features the great card shot in the Capitol rotunda. Condition varies slightly, but the average condition is fine plus. These lobby card are absolutely authentic. MovieArt will sell NO reproductions
