An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The Street of Sin, the 1928 Mauritz Stiller silent London England romantic melodrama ("Story by Josef von Sternberg and Benjamin Glaser"; Emil Jannings is a thug who falls for Salvation Army worker Fay Wray, but his sluttish girlfriend Olga Baclanova sabotages that relationship; the movie no longer exists, so it may be a masterpiece, but it is possible that director Stiller did not have control over the "final cut", so it may have had many studio imposed changes) starring Emil Jannings, Fay Wray (perhaps the sexiest Salvation Army lady ever seen in a movie!), Olga Baclanova, Ernest W. Johnson, and George Kotsonaros. Note that this was director Mauritz Stiller's final movie. He is best remembered for being the man who discovered Greta Garbo, and he brought her to Hollywood, but he clashed with the studios, and he was fired and he returned to Sweden, where he died soon after. Note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this title card! 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: good to very good. There is a distributor stamp in the yellow background above Jannings' credit. There were a few small areas of paper loss in the blank borders, and the one at bottom center very slightly extended into the yellow background. Someone taped pieces of another card to the back of those areas and performed slight restoration to the front. Learn More about condition grades
