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

I Take This Woman, the 1940 W.S. Van Dyke (billed as "W.S. Van Dyke II") romantic marriage melodrama ("Man of the hour! Woman of flame!"; "Original story by Charles MacArthur"; about a doctor who helps poor people, who marries a beautiful woman who wants him to be rich, so he abandons the poor and starts treating rich people) starring Spencer Tracy, Hedy Lamarr, Verree Teasdale, Kent Taylor, Laraine Day, Marjorie Main, Willie Best, Louis Calhern, and Dalies Frantz. Note that this was a very troubled production. Josef von Sternberg was the original director and quit, and was replaced by Frank Borzage, but then the entire movie was shelved for 10 months. At that point, W.S. Van Dyke was hired, and he pretty much re-shot the entire movie, even though a lot of it had already been shot, and he also re-cast several of the lead roles (for example, Jack Carson is credited, but he only has one line that remained in the movie, and that one was dubbed, because he was not available to re-take it when the movie was being edited)!

Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this lobby card, and that was 18 years ago! 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 tear and scuffs in the decoration next to the "I" in the title, and someone put tape on the back of that area without performing restoration. There are pinholes in three corners and in the center of the top border and there are some creases in the top blank border. Otherwise, the card is in pretty nice condition!
