An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Man's Castle, the 1933 Frank Borzage Depression era romantic love triangle melodrama ("Her heart was like a secret city... but his flaming love laid siege to it and captured her forevermore..."; "Theirs was a love as mighty as life itself!"; "They drank freely from the fountain of love --- intoxicated with a passion that blinded them to all but their own great romance--"; "'Love me more than yesterday - and less today than tomorrow...'"; "From the story by Lawrence Hazard"; in sharp counterpoint to the cheery romantic musicals that were popular at the time, this movie has Tracy as a wandering laborer who meets up with beautiful yet broke Loretta Young and he marries her, but, as is his style, plans to move on, but when he discovers she is pregnant, he tries to commit a major robbery so that he can leave her with enough money to take care of her and her baby; unsentimental and reflective of the desperation of those times!) starring Spencer Tracy, Loretta Young, Glenda Farrell (as a showgirl who wants Tracy for a playmate!), Arthur Hohl, Walter Connolly, Marjorie Rambeau, Dickie Moore, and Helen Jerome Eddy NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this title card, and only one in the last 11 years! 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: fair to good. The entire card has darkened somewhat. It has tack holes, smudges, and stains around the edges, with tiny paper loss in the bottom right blank corner. There are many smudges and stains scattered in the image. This is the sort of card that responds really well to professional restoration. It is likely that much or all of the smudges and stains can be removed through chemical means, and of course, most of the pinholes are in the blank borders, and after proper restoration, the card will display well. Please look closely at our images of the front and back of this card before bidding. Note that this card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
