A 1937 Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More)

Hell's Angels, the classic 1930 Howard Hughes World War I (WWI) England Royal Flying Corps military airplane aviation pilot romantic love triangle melodrama ("Howard Hughes' Thrilling Air Spectacle"; "Howard Hughes' Amazing Air Spectacle"; "The First Multi-Million Dollar Talking Picture"; "Howard Hughes' thrilling multi-million dollar - air spectacle"; produced by Howard Hughes; about two brothers at Oxford who join the RAF when World War I starts, and they both fall for the same beautiful girl, but when they go off on a bombing mission, they return to find her with yet a third man) starring Jean Harlow, Ben Lyon, James Hall, John Darrow, Lucien Prival, and Douglas Gilmore. Note that filming on this movie originally started in 1927, and it was being filmed as a silent, and Greta Nissen had the lead female role. But the movie took a very long time to make, and by that point, sound had taken over Hollywood, and producer/director Howard Hughes made the unusual decision to entirely re-shoot the movie with sound. And since Greta Nissen had a strong Norwegian accent (which made no difference in silent movies, but obviously was terrible for sound), and since Jean Harlow had come along, Hughes replaced Nissen with Harlow, which was the greatest break of Harlow's career, but heartbreaking for Nissen, who continued in movies without a big break until 1937, when she retired!

Important Added Info: Note that the 1937 re-release cards from this movie still say "United Artists Picture", which make them one of the only United Artists re-releases I have seen (on the vast majority of their 1920s and 1930s releases, they only handled the first release, and not the re-releases). The 1937 cards are full color and just as nicely done as the 1930 originals, and the only real difference between the two sets is the small writing in the bottom border, including a "C 1937". To make things more complicated, some of the first release cards have NO printing in the bottom border, but all the 1937 re-release ones do. Over the years, I have seen some unscrupulous people delete or alter the "7" from the "1937" on the re-release cards, and try to pass off a 1937 re-release card as an original!

Condition: good to very good. There is a 4" semi-circular tear at upper right and some tattering and creasing in the upper right corner of the card (repaired with tape from the back). The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition!
