") starring Louis Jordan and His Tympany Five, Valerie Black, Frank Wilson, Milyon Woods, Emory Richardson, and Dimples Daniels NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that only 4 lobby cards were produced for this movie, and this is the complete set. It was quite common for studios to only make sets of four for short subjects or low budget movies (or re-releases of big budget movies), because it allowed them to print the sets at half the cost, and on shorts and low budget movies, they tried to save money any way they could (especially since it is likely few theaters even bothered to order lobby cards for these titles, since they were likely shown in addition to a better movie). Note that the lobby cards from this movie are extremely rare (in all our years of auctioning, we have only auctioned a total of five cards, with three out of the four cards from the set previously auctioned, because we auctioned two of them twice, and one we have never auctioned). Condition: very good. The card pictured at top right has slightly darkened unevenly and there is a thin strip of darkening down the left edge of the card pictured at bottom right (in the very edge of the blank border). All the cards have pinholes in the borders and two of the cards have tiny paper loss in some corners, caused by rough removal of pins. The card pictured at lower left has some faint smudges in the bottom center. Learn More about condition grades
