The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex, the 1939 Michael Curtiz Elizabethan Era England historical medieval royalty romantic melodrama ("It's a Battle Royal of Love!"; "The secret romance of good Queen Bess"; "The Queen who could never be a woman... and the man who could never be a King!"; "The most fascinating romance in history!"; "Based on a stage play by Maxwell Anderson"; the play is based on the legend of this famous relationship, and not the reality!; in real life, Elizabeth was 65, but Davis was 31 when she played the role, and she wore considerable makeup to look much older; the play explores the love-hate relationship between the old queen and the dashing young Earl of Essex) starring Bette Davis (in the title role as Queen Elizabeth I), Errol Flynn (in the title role as Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex), Olivia De Havilland, Alan Hale Sr., and Vincent Price (in his second movie role!)
NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.

Condition: good. The card has darkened with age (more so around the edges) typical of vintage Warner Bros. lobby cards printed on linen-type paper). There is a 1/2" u-shaped tear in the man's helmet at upper center and there are some tears and areas of tattering around the edges of the card with most repaired with tape from the back and some touched up with paint from the front. It is quite possible that the card can be lightened through chemical means, and certainly, a restorer can properly fix its defects, and after restoration, the card will display great (although I can also imagine many collectors displaying it just as it is!).
