Note that this was based on a very famous poem written in 1872 by Will Carleton called "Over the Hill to the Poor House". There were two silent shorts and a silent feature based on this poem. There was a 1937 movie that credits this poem as its source, and Leo McCarey's 1937 "Make Way For Tomorrow" surely took much inspiration from this plot as well!

Note that there is a stamp on the back that reads "FROM THE COLLECTION OF Michael R. Hawks", who most would consider the premier lobby card collector and expert in the world (and he is still an active collector, looking for the last few items he needs!). Also 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.
