8 Original Vintage Theatrical English 8x10 (measures 8" x 10") (Learn More)

At the Circus, the 1939 Edward Buzzell musical circus screwball comedy ("Keep the world laughing!") starring The Marx Brothers (Groucho Marx, Chico Marx, and Harpo Marx), Kenny Baker, Florence Rice, Eve Arden, Margaret Dumont, Nat Pendleton, Fritz Feld, and Charles Gemora (as Gibraltar the gorilla). Note that this was the movie where the Marx Brothers sing the song "Lydia the Tattooed Lady"! Also note that MGM initially was going to call this movie "A Day at the Circus" (to capitalize on the success of "A Day at the Races"), but that title was dropped (although it is on a few stills). There was a working title of "Marx Bros At the Circus" that is also on some stills, but not the 1939 posters or lobby cards. To make things confusing, when MGM re-released the movie in 1962, the advertising made it look like the title of the movie was "Marx Bros At the Circus".

Important Added Info: SUPER IMPORTANT! THIS LOT CONTAINS 8 LOBBY CARDS, BUT ONLY FOUR ARE PICTURED! THE HIGH BIDDER ON THIS LOT WILL RECEIVE 8 LOBBY CARDS FROM THIS MOVIE, and NOT just the four pictured! We realize there is an element of gambling to this, but we made no effort to find the best four lobby cards in the lot, and, if you have any willingness to gamble at all, you may find that you get some great lobby cards that were not pictured! Please do NOT bid on this lot unless you can accept that you are only seeing four of the lobby cards.

Condition: very good. There are stains in the borders of some of the lobby cards (mostly at in the lower left corners). The lobby cards are slightly curled meaning that they do not lay completely flat. There are fine cracks in the emulsion in some of the lobby cards which is mostly only noticeable when held at an angle to the light.
