6 Original 1927 Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Cards (LCs; measure 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More)

Die Freudlose Gasse (released in the U.S. in 1927 as "Streets of Sorrow" and also as "The Joyless Street"), the 1925 Georg Wilheim Pabst (G.W. Pabst) German silent post-World War I (WWI) Austria Depression era melodrama (about the effects of the Depression on an ordinary street in Vienna, and how one crooked butcher makes the lives everyone who lives on the street miserable) starring ("An All Star Cast Including") Asta Nielsen, Werner Krauss, Einar Hanson, Karl Etlinger, Jaro Furth, and a host of actors in minor roles as residents of the street, including a very young Greta Garbo, in her 7th film appearance. After she went to the United States the following year and became a major star, this movie was released in the U.S. in 1927, over two years after it was made. The U.S. distributor released it with a large image of Garbo and she was billed above the title as "Greta Garbo in 'Streets of Sorrow'" (which was incredibly deceptive advertising, because of her relatively minor role)!

Important Added Info: Note that first release movie paper from this film is incredibly rare. We have only sold two first release U.S. lobby cards for this movie until we consigned this group of 6 lobby cards!

Condition: good to very good. Each of the cards has darkened and become somewhat fragile around the edges, which has some varying amounts of paper loss (see our images). Each has a tear that varies in length at upper left. Despite the edge defects the main images are in generally nice condition, but please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of these cards and bear in mind their defects prior to placing a bid.
