Rubber stamps of the Detroit Free Press (dated Nov. 12, 1963), where photographer Tony Spina was employed, and a stamp for Tony Spina himself. A clipping from a newspaper article, likely accompanied by the photograph upon release, affixed to the verso, quoting from Preminger: "I don't consider it my duty to follow any book... I filter it through my brain and mold it to the medium." "The Cardinal," based on a 1950 novel by Henry Morton Robinson, seems to be a case where the director kept truer to the source than usual. The movie presents the life of Stephen Fermoyle, a young American priest who became a Prince of the Church. The story is based in part on the career of Francis Joseph Cardinal Spellman, archbishop of New York (1939-1967). The film starred Tom Tryon, Carol Lynley, Dorothy Gish, and Maggie McNamara, and earned Preminger six Academy Award nominations.8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus, with annotations in manuscript pencil on the verso, staples holes at one edge, a few faint creases, and cropping annotations.
