Ralph Richardson in Richard III Shakespeare Film Lobby Cinema Card

CHA0214  An original 10x8 vintage 1955 lobby card for the film Richard III directed by Laurence Olivier and starring John Gielgud showing a scene with Ralph Richardson - please note this has trimmed top border perhaps where the 1950s cinema had to correct to fix into their window display - corner places to allow - some handling - graded good plus to vg minus - mostly otherwise very good allowing but please be aware.

Having helped his brother King Edward IV (Cedric Hardwicke) take the throne of England, the jealous hunchback Richard, Duke of York (Laurence Olivier), plots to seize power for himself. Masterfully deceiving and plotting against nearly everyone in the royal court, including his eventual wife, Lady Anne (Claire Bloom), and his brother George, Duke of Clarence (John Gielgud), Richard orchestrates a bloody rise to power before finding all his gains jeopardized by those he betrayed.
