Date Sold 12/26/2021 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 8 Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Cards (LCs; measure 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Miracle on 34th Street (released in other English-speaking countries as "The Big Heart"), the classic 1947 George Seaton New York City Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade heart-warming Christmas holiday family romantic legal lawyer melodrama ("Story by Valentine Davies"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; about a man who insists he is the one and only Santa Claus, and he ultimately proves that he is!) starring Maureen O'Hara (as Doris Walker), John Payne (as Fred Gailey), Edmund Gwenn (winner of the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film; as Kris Kringle, the real Santa Claus!), Gene Lockhart (as the judge who would be committing political suicide if he rules there is no Santa Claus!), Porter Hall (as Mr. Sawyer), William Frawley, Jerome Cowan (as the District Attorney), Philip Tonge (as Julian Shellhammer), Natalie Wood (as Susan Walker, the little girl who doesn't believe in Santa Claus), Alvin Greenman (as Alfred), Harry Antrim (as Mr. Macy), Herbert Heyes (as Mr. Gimble), Thelma Ritter (as Peter's Mother), Jack Albertson (as the Post Office mail sorter), and James Seay (as Dr. Pierce). Note that in an ironic twist, this all-time Christmas favorite was not viewed favorably by studio chief Darryl F. Zanuck. He did not think it would do well, and so he had it released in June, rather than the obvious December, and he instructed the publicity department to "hide" the fact that it was a Christmas movie!

Important Added Info: Note that we have auctioned individual cards from this classic holiday movie many times, but we have only twice before auctioned a complete set, and one was 23 years ago! Condition: very good to fine. The title card has slightly darkened in portions of the blank borders and there are a few ink spots under the inset image at lower right (witch has tiny surface paper loss in O'Hara's arm - see our image). Card #7 has a few very faint scuffs in Payne's dark-colored jacket. Card #3 has a small scuff mark at lower center. Other than these few, quite minor defects, the very rare and complete set of cards is in excellent condition and the cards have no tape whatsoever on the front or back, and they never have had any restoration of any kind!
