Date Sold 7/30/2024Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Charlie Chan at the Race Track, the 1936 H. Bruce Humberstone Asian detective horse racing sports gambling mystery crime thriller ("Based on the character 'Charlie Chan' created by Earl Derr Biggers") starring Warner Oland (in the title role as Charlie Chan), Keye Luke (as Lee Chan), Helen Wood, Thomas Beck, Alan Dinehart, Gavin Muir, Jonathan Hale, and Sam Flint. Note that the very first Charlie Chan movie was "House Without a Key" in 1925, with George Kuwa as Chan. In 1927, "The Chinese Parrot" (directed by Paul Leni) starred Sojin Kamiyama as Chan. In 1929 came the third movie, "Behind That Curtain", starring E.L. Park as Charlie Chan. 1931 brought "Charlie Chan Carries On", starring Warner Oland in the first of many movies with him as the Asian detective, and he was later replaced by Sidney Toler and then Roland Winters (there would ultimately be 47 Charlie Chan movies!). Of course, Charlie Chan is one of the most memorable literary creations ever, from author Earl Derr Biggers, but because politically correct-minded people have viewed the character as outdated, the movies are rarely shown, which is a shame! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned three examples of this scene card, and the last one was 8 years ago! Note that a previous owner of this card glued two pieces of paper to the back of the card, which identify the card on one and the collector's name on the other. Fortunately, those pieces of paper do not affect the front at all, and they could be removed using a product like Bestine. 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: very good to fine. The card has the slightest of darkening in the right edge of the right blank border. It has two pieces of paper glued to the back (see above), but they do not affect the front. Otherwise, the card is in wonderful condition. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
