Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned three lobby cards, three 8x10 lobby cards, and a glass slide from this movie, and NO other movie paper, until we received this fourth 8x10 lobby card! Note that, in the early days of movie making, when lobby cards were first made (around 1915), studios would issue sets of the cards in two sizes; the regular 11" x 14" size, and a smaller 8" x 10" size. The cards were identical in every way except for the different size. This practice continued through the early 1920s, at which point the studios abandoned the smaller lobby cards, likely because theaters either ordered 11" x 14" lobby cards or 8" x 10" stills, and did not order enough of the 8" x 10" lobby cards to justify them continuing to make them. Condition: very good. There is paper loss in the top left blank corner, with a pinholes and a few faint smudges around the edges and a tiny hole in the lower right edge of the image. Otherwise, the card is in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
