An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Andy Hardy's Double Life, the 1942 George B. Seitz Andy Hardy romantic family comedy ("Pack up your troubles! Time out for laughs!"; "Andy's last fling before college is a riot!"; "1943's New Laugh Hit!"; one of the series of "Hardy Family" movies about Andy Hardy, his judge father, and the rest of his family; note that, in the first entries of this series, the judge father and his wife were the center of the movies, and the children had secondary roles, but Mickey Rooney's character quickly became extremely popular, and became the focus of the series) starring Lewis Stone (as Judge Hardy), Mickey Rooney (in the title role as Andy Hardy), Cecilia Parker, Esther Williams (billed as "Introducing Esther Williams Gorgeous Swimming Champ"; she of course was the champion swimmer who made a long series of aquatic swimming movies), Robert 'Bobby' Blake, Fay Holden, Ann Rutherford, Sara Haden, and Susan Peters. Note that Esther Williams was one of those rare stars who became a giant star immediately! She had actually had two tiny bit roles prior to this movie, but MGM still thought it reasonable to bill her as "introducing", and they gave her a giant full-length sexy artwork image on the posters!

Important Added Info: 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. We are doing something in this set of auctions we rarely do! A couple of years ago, we were approached by a very long time collector, and he asked us if he could give us an entire auction of single lobby cards by himself. We agreed, and held that auction in 2017, and later that same year, a different collector sent us a different group of 999 lobby cards and we repeated the process. Now we have a third such "single owner" collection. This one was originally assembled in Australia, which is why some of the cards have either Australian paper snipes attached or Australian ratings stamps (but many do not have them). This collection originally contained 1,100 cards, and we auctioned 100 of them in our March Major Auction, and now we are auctioning the remaining 999 in THIS set of auctions, and after this auction, there will be no more cards to be offered. As will immediately be evident when you look at the cards, many of them are from titles where you almost never see any lobby cards, so this is a rare opportunity to acquire many cards that almost never are offered for sale or at auction! Condition: good to very good. There are pinholes in the corners, with some faint smudges and two tiny tears in the borders. There are a few faint scuffs and creases with in the image. 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
