An Original Vintage Movie Lobby Card Bag (measures 11 1/4" x 14 1/2") (Learn More) The Great Lie, the 1941 Edmund Goulding romantic love triangle adultery melodrama ("There are some things a woman has to lie about ...to a man!"; "'Sometimes there's a terrible penalty for telling the truth...'"; "From a novel by Polan Banks"; about a woman who marries, but her husband quickly dies in a plane crash, and then she finds out that his ex-girlfriend is pregnant with his child!) starring Bette Davis ("is better than in 'The Old Maid' in her new triumph"), George Brent, Mary Astor (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film), Lucile Watson, and Hattie McDaniel NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that from the 1910s through the 1950s, lobby card sets were sent in brown bags that had the names of the movie and credits printed on the outside. The purpose of the bag was to protect the lobby cards, and they served that purpose well! Since the vast majority of lobby card sets get broken up and sold by the individual card, few of these original printed brown bags survive, except in the cases where someone preserved the entire set with the bag. We don't know if there are "brown bag collectors", but it certainly seems that the printed brown bag from legendary movies would be the most desirable, and ones from lesser movies would have lesser value!
