Date Sold 9/15/2020 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 8 Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Cards (LCs; measure 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Adam's Rib, the classic 1949 George Cukor husband-and-wife-lawyers-on-opposite-sides courtroom legal crime comedy ("The Funniest Picture in 10 Years!"; "It's the hilarious answer to who wears the pants"; about a woman accused of trying to murder her husband who is defended in court by the wife of the prosecutor, which disturbs their marriage; with a screenplay written by Ruth Gordon and her husband Garson Kanin, years before she was in "Harold and Maude"!) starring Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn, Judy Holliday (in her second credited movie role!), Tom Ewell, David Wayne, and Jean Hagen. Note that screenwriters Ruth Gordon and Garson Kanin based Hepburn's and Tracy's relationship on their own marriage, and they did the same in other screenplays they wrote for Hepburn and Tracy! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that these cards have the words "AN MGM SILVER ANNIVERSARY PICTURE" stenciled in the top left of each scene (I have seen this on several other 1949 MGM lobby cards, including those from the 1949 re-release of "The Wizard of Oz"). It was likely done by the studio, and some people might consider it a defect, and some might consider it a cool addition to the card! In addition, these cards were used (or at least sent to) Australia at some time and each has an Australian rating neatly stenciled at lower left. Condition: good to very good. Each has two stencils (as noted above). They are otherwise in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
