An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More)

Puttin' On the Ritz, the 1930 Edward Sloman New York City romantic musical ("The Idol of Broadway in a tuneful song & dance extravaganza"; "Dynamic! Vimful! Glorious!"; "The spectacular talking singing dancing sensation"; "All talking singing dancing"; "Music and Lyrics by Irving Berlin"; about a vaudeville performer who becomes very successful and turns his back on his old friends; it is really just a framing device to showcase the many wonderful songs) starring Harry Richman ("The Idol of Broadway former star of 'George White's Scandals'"), Joan Bennett, James Gleason, Aileen Pringle, and Lilyan Tashman. Note that this movie introduced the classic title song by Irving Berlin, and it is one of the most recognizable songs ever, even in the present day!

Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned a first release lobby card from this movie, and the only poster we have ever auctioned is a single window card! 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. The card has darkened. There are scuffs and white stains in the right of the card and tiny pinholes in the corners, with a 1/2" tear in the upper left border. Obviously, one would prefer to find a better example of this card, but not only have we never auctioned a first release title card before, but we also have never auctioned any first release lobby card, so one might wait many years for that better example. Note that this card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
