Date Sold 1/3/2019Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Knowles Limited Edition Collector's Plate (#838A; measures 8 1/2" x 8 1/2") (Learn More) Dinner at Eight, the classic 1933 George Cukor New York City high society romantic comedy ("Greatest entertainment ever offered by stage or screen"; "From the Sam H. Harris stage play by George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber"; about a rich couple who throw a dinner for a group of very different New York society types, and young Jean Harlow steals the show as the trophy girlfriend of rich Wallace Beery) starring Marie Dressler, John Barrymore, Wallace Beery, Jean Harlow, Lee Tracy, Lionel Barrymore, Edmund Lowe, Billie Burke, Madge Evans, Jean Hersholt, Karen Morley, and Phillips Holmes. Note that Phillips Holmes had made an impression in some movies in the late 1920s. In 1931, he would get the lead in the first version of "An American Tragedy", which made it seem like he would become a major star, but that didn't materialize. He had a major affair with Libby Holman, but that was certainly complicated, and when they broke up, she immediately married his brother! Oddly, years later, Holman would have another very complicated affair with Montgomery Clift, who played the same part in the remake of "An American Tragedy", re-titled "A Place in the Sun". Sadly, Holmes died in a plane crash in 1942. I am very surprised no one has made a movie about his life, or a joint movie about him and Libby Holman! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Erik Dzenis Important Added Info: Note that a collector's plate made by Knowles from 1989 (serial numbered 838A) and it comes with its original box! Note that this item needs to be shipped in a box, which might be a fairly small box, or might be a very large box. What is important for the bidders to know is that this item likely CAN'T be combined with other purchases, because there would not be much savings if any, because this item will be in a box, while other purchases will be in a flat package, and trying to combine them would likely damage this item anyway. If you purchase multiple items like this (ones that need to be packed in a box), then they likely can be combined with each other (unless the resulting box is simply too large). So please bear in mind that this item must be sent separately in a box (the size of the box will depend on the size of the item), and bear this added expense in mind before placing a bid on it. Condition: very good. The box has water staining (see our image) however the plate is in pretty nice condition with only minor wear on the bottom. Learn More about condition grades
