NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that these lobby cards were printed in the United States for use at theaters with Spanish speaking audiences (this was done most by MGM, starting in the 1930s, but it was done by the other major studios as well, and often the posters would have the exact same image as the English language poster, except the writing would be in Spanish, and on posters from the 1930s and 1940s there would be an added "Toda en Espanol!", meaning "Entirely in Spanish!", printed within the image). Sometimes posters from the 1960s or later will have the word "SPANISH" printed in the bottom border (or sometimes stamped on the back of the poster). Condition: fair to good. The cards have darkened somewhat and each has a snipe in the lower edge, a tiny circular hole at upper center, several pinholes around the edges (with some scattered within various areas of the image and several torn or enlarged due to rough removal) and several scuff marks, smudges, faint stains and/or creases scattered throughout.
