Important Added Info: Note that in the late 1930s, MGM (unlike the other studios, which created "jumbo lobby cards") instead created these "jumbo stills"! These measured the same as the jumbo lobby cards (14" x 17" [36 x 43 cm]), but they were not color, and they are printed on a quality photo stock, and have the logo for the movie in one corner of the image. They are quite rare! Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
