1948WRCLIT67220Los Angeles: RKO Radio Pictures 1948. Three vintage 11 x 14" color lobby cards for the US release numbers 3 4 and 5 in the sequence. No. 3 has some dust smudges and a short corner tear mended on the verso with tack holes from use; some modest marginal discolorations to others; still a good group. A representative three from the eight lobby cards promoting the 1948 U.S. release of the 1947 film adaptation of Steinbeck's novella. The film first released as LA PERLA was produced in Mexico by Film Asociados Mexico- Americanos in association with Ãguila Films and was directed by Emilio Fernandez who also collaborated with Steinbeck and Jack Wagner on the screenplay. Master of golden age Mexican cinema Gabriel Figueroa served as cinematographer and won a Golden Globe Award for his work on this film. Steinbeck's conception of THE PEARL as a cinematic vehicle from the start he discussed it as a film with Fernandez as early as 1941 and his active participation in its production make it of particular significance in the field of Steinbeck-related film.
