NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.

Important Added Info: Note that this classic Chaplin short was re-issued (with the changed title of "The Paper Hanger") and it was "Conformed to Sound Speed" and had "Music and Sound Effects". RKO (through its Van Beuren subsidiary) had a similar series of Chaplin re-releases in 1932, and in 1939, a different company bought the rights to the Essanay Chaplins, and re-released a few of them with music and sound added as RKO had. In 1940 exactly, they changed their name to "King of Comedy Film Corp." and re-released ten of the Essanays, and this one was one of those ten 1940 re-releases.

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 is tiny surface paper loss in the "A" of "HANGER". Otherwise, the card is in pretty 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!
