Bachelor Mother (released in Denmark as "Polly's Baby"), the 1939 Garson Kanin romantic rich-man-poor-girl family comedy ("Fun and romance in the most different story to hit the screen in many a month! ... Joyous Ginger as the glamorous shopgirl who found a baby on a doorstep and kept it for her own... David Niven, as the boss' son, who didn't believe her, but loved her anyhow... Charles Coburn, as the store owner who could forgive but not forget... Frank Albertson, as the jitter-bug stock clerk... E. E. Clive, as the butler-turned-nursemaid! ... All in the picture that will keep you on edge with deliciously tingling romantic suspense as you let yourself goin a heartfull of laughs!"; "Story by Felix Jackson"; about a beautiful girl who works at a department store, and she finds a baby on her doorstep and wants to adopt it, but everyone around her thinks it is really her baby, including the son of the owner of the store, who is romantically interested in her) starring Ginger Rogers (as Polly Parrish), David Niven, Charles Coburn, Frank Albertson, and E.E.

Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card has been trimmed and it now measures 10" x 12 3/4".

Condition: poor. Someone took the card and very neatly cut off all four borders and then mounted it onto a mat with glue. The card was removed from the mat, but there are brown glue stains over the entire back of the card and it has darkened the card somewhat. There are some glue stains scattered around the edges of the card, and significant ones in the image, including many in Ginger Rogers' face and a less number in Niven's face. The card is extremely fragile and there is a 6" tear across the lower part of Niven's chest and a 1" x 3" area of paper that is completely detached from the card at the end of that tear. There is paper loss and a tear in the upper left border. Certainly, this card has many real defects and is in MUCH lesser condition. It is likely a restorer could "perform a miracle", and make this card look quite nice without looking heavily restored, but I don't know to what degree that is true, so PLEASE DO NOT BID ON THIS CARD UNLESS YOU CAN ACCEPT ITS REALLY MAJOR DEFECTS OR ARE WILLING TO GAMBLE ON BEING ABLE TO RESTORE IT!
