This movie was the last where he was billed as the director! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper items from this movie are incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned a cloth banner (which sold for $1,127, and that was 11 years ago), two lobby cards (one 22 years ago and one 13 years ago), a herald (17 years ago), two glass slides, and two stills from this movie (and NO other movie paper of any kind) until we received this third lobby card, which has a different scene than the previous two! 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 to very good. The entire card has darkened somewhat. It has tack holes, smudges, and small stains around the edges. There are a few tiny stains scattered in the image, but not in the stars' faces (see our image). This is the sort of card that responds really well to professional restoration. It is likely that much or all of the smudges and stains can be removed through chemical means, and of course, most of the pinholes are in the blank borders, and after proper restoration, the card will display well. Please look closely at our images of the front and back of this card before bidding. Note that this card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
