Cecil B. DeMille's The Sign of the Cross, the classic 1932 Cecil B.

Important Added Info: Note that we have seen lobby cards for this movie that have a 1932 copyright in the bottom left corner, and others that have a 1933 copyright. This is because the movie premiered in New York City in November 1932 and in Los Angeles in December 1932, but did not play in the rest of the country until February 1933 (this was common practice for major movies at this time). So there were lobby cards printed at the end of 1932 and also at the beginning of 1933, and this is one of the cards that was printed in 1933 (and it is not a "re-release", because the movie was in its continuous first release throughout that time). These cards are from 1932.

Condition: good to very good. The card pictured at upper left has much discoloration throughout and some edge defects, and the one to its right has similar staining with creases, defects, areas of paper loss and tears of varying lengths along parts of some edges. The other card has some small slight discoloration at upper left in the blank border edge only and is otherwise in pretty nice condition.
