Auction History Result 2m377 STAND-IN LC 1937 Humphrey Bogart in tux laughing but Leslie Howard is not amused, ultra rare! Date Sold 12/16/2018 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Stand-In, the 1937 Tay Garnett Hollywood California movie-making acting stage comedy ("A merry satire on dizzy Hollywood!"; "Based on the Saturday Evening Post Story by Clarence Budington Kelland"; about a New York bank that gets stuck with a money-losing studio, and they send an employee to the studio to start shutting it down, but he discovers that it doesn't have to lose money, and he tries to save it) starring Leslie Howard, Joan Blondell, Humphrey Bogart, Alan Mowbray, Marla Shelton, C. Henry Gordon, and Jack Carson. Note that Bogart made this movie immediately after "Dead End" (and a year after "The Petrified Forest"), but he was still so little thought of by Hollywood that he was third billed in this movie, and was not pictured on the original paper! It was not until "Casablanca" and "The Maltese Falcon" that Bogart became a first level superstar. This movie was later re-released, headlining Humphrey Bogart, with a large image of him on the posters! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card is extremely rare. We have never auctioned it before! 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: good to very good. The card has darkened, typical of Warner Bros. lobby cards of this period. It has discoloration and some tiny dot stains in the blank borders and white background areas. Otherwise, the card is in nice condition. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
