An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The Electric House, the 1922 Edward F. Cline & Buster Keaton silent electrician slapstick comedy short (about a man who is mistakenly certified to be an electrician, and then he is in charge of wiring an entire house, something he knows nothing about!) starring Buster Keaton, Virginia Fox, Joe Keaton, Myra Keaton, Louise Keaton (Buster Keaton's parents and sister!), and Laura La Varnie NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have never auctioned even a single movie paper item from this movie until we received this lobby card (and a different scene card we are currently auctioning in a separate auction)! 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. What IS gelbacking? Learn More Condition: good to very good. The card had pinholes and tiny paper loss in the corners. It had some small areas of paper loss in the bottom right of the image. Overall, the card was in good to very good condition prior to restoration. A talented restorer gel backed the card (meaning they backed the card onto a gel material) and they then performed excellent restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, so that the card still exactly looks and feels like an original card (and it is!), with no backing at all. You can see slight signs of the restoration, but the card displays pretty well. Apparently, after the card was backed, someone accidentally put something on top of it that caused a small piece of another card to become attached to the upper right blank border of this card. Surely that could be removed by a professional or talented amateur, but bear it in mind before bidding (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
