An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More)

The Heart of a Follies Girl, the 1928 John Francis Dillon silent romantic crime comedy ("Story by Adela Rogers St. John"; about a poor shop clerk who falls in love with a Ziegfeld Follies girl and to keep her, he embezzles money and is sent to jail, and surprisingly, the girl decides to loyally wait for him!) starring Billie Dove, Larry Kent, Lowell Sherman, Clarissa Selwynne, and Mildred Harris. Note that Mildred Harris was a teenage actress in the 1910s, who was seduced by Charlie Chaplin, and he then married her. They divorced in 1921, and she continued making movies, sometimes billed as "Mildred Harris Chaplin" or "Mrs. Charlie Chaplin". The coming of sound did not help her career, nor did the fact that she was about to enter her thirties, and her career pretty much ended in 1930, although she returned to have a number of minor roles until her passing in 1944, as a result of botched abdominal surgery. Note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist.

Important Added Info: Note that first release 1928 movie posters and lobby cards from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only auctioned three scene lobby cards from this movie (and no posters) until we received this title card! 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: very good. There are two very tiny dot marks in Dove's face, one in her cheek and one by her nose. There is a pinhole in the center of the bottom border and a tiny "bump" in the left of the top blank border. There is a faint stain above the "D" of "DOVE" in the top of the card and faint stains in the left of the bottom blank border. Otherwise, the card is in nice condition. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
