The Great Lover, the 1931 Harry Beaumont English/Italian/German romantic love triangle opera singer melodrama ("Picture based on the play produced by Cohan and Harris"; "Written by Leo Ditrichstein and Frederick and Fannie Hatton"; about a male opera star who takes a young woman as his protege in order to take advantage of her, but he finds that he is falling in love with her instead) starring Adolphe Menjou, Irene Dunne, Ernest Torrence, Neil Hamilton, and Olga Baclanova (billed as "Baclanova"). Note that this movie was based on a stage play that was produced by George M. Cohan and Sam Harris!

Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper items from this movie are incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned two scene lobby cards, a Belgian poster, a glass slide, and a few stills from this movie (and NO other movie paper) until we received this title 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 entire card has darkened somewhat. It has tack holes, smudges, and small stains around the edges, with many smudges and stains in the yellow areas and some in Baclanova's arm, and a small tear in the lower right border. There are a few tiny stains scattered in the 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!
