An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The Thirteenth Chair, the 1937 George B. Seitz England clairvoyant seance murder mystery crime melodrama ("From the play by Bayard Veiller"; "The screen dares new thrills!"; "The screen mystery that defies solution... just as the stage play held audiences breathless, spellbound for 40 weeks!"; "13 WERE ALIVE... when the lights went out!"; about a phony clairvoyant who holds a seance and one of the people is murdered, and Scotland Yard investigates the case, but the medium brings the remaining people together for a second seance, trying to scare the guilty party into revealing themselves) starring May Whitty (billed as "Dame May Whitty"; as the clairvoyant/medium), Madge Evans, Lewis Stone, Elissa Landi, Thomas Beck, Henry Daniell, Janet Beecher, and Ralph Forbes. Note that this was based on a very successful 1916 Broadway play that had been filmed in 1919, and was remade in 1929, by Tod Browning, and this was the third remake!

Important Added Info: 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. We are doing something in this set of auctions we rarely do! A couple of years ago, we were approached by a very long time collector, and he asked us if he could give us an entire auction of single lobby cards by himself. We agreed, and held that auction in 2017, and later that same year, a different collector sent us a different group of 999 lobby cards and we repeated the process. Now we have a third such "single owner" collection. This one was originally assembled in Australia, which is why some of the cards have either Australian paper snipes attached or Australian ratings stamps (but many do not have them). This collection originally contained 1,100 cards, and we auctioned 100 of them in our March Major Auction, and now we are auctioning the remaining 999 in THIS set of auctions, and after this auction, there will be no more cards to be offered. As will immediately be evident when you look at the cards, many of them are from titles where you almost never see any lobby cards, so this is a rare opportunity to acquire many cards that almost never are offered for sale or at auction! Condition: fair to good. There is water staining in the right border that extends into the image, and in the right of the bottom border, with some pinholes in the corners and other faint stains around the edges. 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
