Auction History Result BABY MINE 1sheet Date Sold 9/12/2000Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh) (Learn More) Baby Mine, the 1928 Robert Z. Leonard silent comedy starring Karl Dane, George K. Arthur, Charlotte Greenwood, Louise Lorraine, and Pussyfoot the Cat. Note that Karl Dane and George K. Arthur appeared in two of the same movies in the mid-1920s, and then in 1927, MGM paired the huge Dane with the diminutive Arthur as a comedy team in 1927's "Rookies", and they were a huge hit, and over the next four years, they appeared in a total of 17 comedies as a Laurel & Hardy-like slapstick comedy team. But Dane had a very thick accent, and he could not make the transition to sound movies, and he had a few bit parts given to him by friends, but by 1934, he was washed up, and he bought a hot dog cart which he displayed outside of the MGM gates! Apparently, he reasonably found this extremely depressing, and he soon committed suicide. The following year, Arthur retired from movies and became a Broadway producer among other careers, and he lived until 1985, when he was 86 years old. Note that this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
