Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned four other 8x10 lobby cards from this movie, and NO other movie paper, until we received this title card! Note that, in the early days of movie making, when lobby cards were first made (around 1915), studios would issue sets of the cards in two sizes; the regular 11" x 14" size, and a smaller 8" x 10" size. The cards were identical in every way except for the different size. This practice continued through the early 1920s, at which point the studios abandoned the smaller lobby cards, likely because theaters either ordered 11" x 14" lobby cards or 8" x 10" stills, and did not order enough of the 8" x 10" lobby cards to justify them continuing to make them. Condition: very good to fine. The card has a few minor border defects, but it is overall in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
