An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Manhattan, the 1924 R.H. Burnside silent New York City mistaken identity romantic adventure crime comedy (from the story by Jeffery Farnol; about a rich man who is so bored that he takes up ventriloquism and goes to parties where he gets very drunk, but then a crook breaks into his apartment, and he convinces the crook that he also had broken in to rob the place, and they become good friends, and the rich man has finally found something in life he enjoys!) starring Richard Dix, Jacqueline Logan, Gregory Kelly, George Siegmann, and Gunboat Smith 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 different lobby card from this movie (and NO other movie paper of any kind) until we received this second lobby card! Note that the vast majority of collectors would assume that this is a title card, but it is not! In the mid to late 1920s, Paramount made many sets of lobby cards where the seven scene cards all LOOK like title cards, but the actual title card is different from the seven scene cards (not too long after this, Paramount abandoned title cards altogether for the most part for the next forty-odd years, instead using a posed portrait of the stars in place of a title card). In the case of this set, ALL eight cards seem to be scene cards! This scene card is from one of those sets where the scene cards are commonly mistaken for title cards. Please do not bid on it thinking it is a title card, as it is a scene 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 to very good. The card was displayed in a frame at one time, which caused it to unevenly darken. There is a small circular stain on the back of the top center that slightly bleeds through to the front. Note that this card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
