An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More)

Dangerous Paradise, the 1930 William A. Wellman topical island romantic melodrama (based on the novel 'Victory' by Joseph Conrad; about a young girl living on a tropical island with lots of lecherous old men whom she is afraid of; she goes to a neighboring island where a woman-hating hermit lives by himself, and she begs him to let her stay there where she will be safe) starring Nancy Carroll, Richard Arlen, Warner Oland, Francis McDonald, and George Kotsonaros. Note that the plot of this movie was filmed several times. Had this movie been made a few years earlier, Clara Bow would surely have played the lead, and there would have been sexual tension between her and the various men in the movie. But with young innocent Nancy Carroll, she comes off as a threatened female, and it is an entirely different movie that it would have been with Bow.

Important Added Info: Note that first release 1930 movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have never auctioned even a single movie paper item from this movie (except for a single 8x10 still) until we received this great lobby card, with a wonderful full-length portrait of Nancy Carroll wearing a sexy sarong! 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 to fine. There is a tiny circular stain in the right of the top border and a few scuffs in the upper left background area. There are a few tiny dot stains in the background to the right of Carroll and a 1" crease in the extreme left, in the bottom of the light green wall. The card was attached to a mat with a piece of tape on the back of each corner, and there is surface paper loss in those areas, but it does not affect the front at all. Other than the above defects, which are truly minor, the card is in really wonderful condition.
