Auction History Result 8z013 GRANDMA'S BOY LC 1922 Harold Lloyd with stuffed animal is up against a tough customer! Date Sold 8/17/2017 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 10 1/4" x 13 1/4" [26 x 34 cm]) (Learn More) Grandma's Boy, the 1922 Fred C. Newmeyer silent family relationship romantic love triangle comedy (produced by Hal Roach; about a mild-mannered young man who lives with his grandmother, and who competes with a "bully" for the affections of a pretty young woman; a robber comes to their small town, and his grandmother tells him about how heroic his grandfather was in the Civil War, and she inspires the young man to not only catch the thief, but to also beat up the bully and win the hand of his young lady!) starring Harold Lloyd ("His First 5 Part Feature"), Mildred Davis, Anna Townsend, Charles Stevenson, and Dick Sutherland. Note that this was Harold Lloyd's first feature film after a huge number of one and two-reel comedy shorts. Oddly, this was at first intended to be a serious movie, but Lloyd added a lot of gags and it became a comedy. There are flashback scenes in the movie showing the "grandfather", which are taken from an early Lloyd short. The movie was one of the highest grossing movies of 1922!

Important Added Info: Note that we have been consigned a collection of early lobby cards that all were heavily trimmed (some with just the borders trimmed, but others trimmed to 8" x 10"). They are all from very rare titles, and certainly, they could be restored (or displayed as they are). One would obviously prefer finding an untrimmed example of this card, but one might wait a VERY long time to find that untrimmed example, but bear in mind this significant defect before bidding on this card, which has been trimmed and it now measures 10 1/4" x 13 1/4" [26 x 34 cm]. 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. Most of the blank borders have been trimmed off, but otherwise, the card is in pretty nice condition! Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
