Byrd's expedition in Antarctica! Date Sold 8/17/2017 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 10" x 13 1/2" [25 x 34 cm]) (Learn More) With Byrd at the South Pole, the 1930 Antarctica airplane aviation documentary ("Drama of human daring and courage at the bottom of the world!"; "What human eyes never saw! Where woman has never been!"; "The greatest story of daring and courage ever told!"; "Actually filmed in the vast unknown of the Antarctic"; "Fearlessly - this band of adventurers entered the vast unknown of the Antarctic! With the odds against them they lived through the greatest fear of daring and courage ever recorded!") featuring Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd, Clair D. Alexander, Brent Blachen, George H. Black, and Quin A. Blackburn NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that the vast majority of collectors would assume that this is a title card, but it is not! In the mid to late 1920s, Paramount made many sets of lobby cards where the seven scene cards all LOOK like title cards, but the actual title card is different from the seven scene cards (not too long after this, Paramount abandoned title cards altogether for the most part for the next forty-odd years, instead using a posed portrait of the stars in place of a title card). In the case of this set, ALL eight cards seem to be scene cards! This scene card is from one of those sets where the scene cards are commonly mistaken for title cards. Please do not bid on it thinking it is a title card, as it is a scene card! Note that we have been consigned a collection of early lobby cards that all were heavily trimmed (some with just the borders trimmed, but others trimmed to 8" x 10"). They are all from very rare titles, and certainly, they could be restored (or displayed as they are). One would obviously prefer finding an untrimmed example of this card, but one might wait a VERY long time to find that untrimmed example, but bear in mind this significant defect before bidding on this card, which has been trimmed and it now measures 10" x 13 1/2" [25 x 34 cm]. 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. Condition: good. All the blank borders were mostly trimmed off and there is paper loss in three corners. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
