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

Trilby, the 1923 James Young silent Paris France evil-hypnotist-turns-simple-girl-into-great-singer melodrama ("Richard Walton Tully presents his screen version of George DuMaurier's famous novel") starring Andree Lafayette (in the title role as Trilby; billed as "The celebrated French star"), Creighton Hale, Arthur Edmund Carewe (as Svengali), Philo McCullough, and Francis McDonald (as Gecko). Note that this classic story had been adapted into a movie seven times prior to this adaptation, and in 1931, John Barrymore played Svengali, and there was a 1954 version as well! Also, note that this is a "lost" film which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist.

Artist: Archie Gunn
Important Added Info: Note that for this set of lobby cards, First National had each one have an artwork image, and all of them somewhat appear to be "title cards". However, there is one of the artwork cards that has full credits, and that one IS the title card, and the other seven are scene cards. 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: very good. There are some pinholes and faint smudges around the edges. Something was glued to the back of the right of the card, and it was removed, leaving paper residue, but it has only a slight effect on the front (see our image).
