Auction History Result 2s114 LADY TO LOVE WC '30 art of Vilma Banky, directed by Victor Sjostrom, all talking, rare! Date Sold 11/27/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22" [36 x 56 cm]) (Learn More) A Lady to Love, the 1930 Victor Sjostrom (he was a major Swedish director of the 1910s and 1920s, and late in his life, he turned to acting, giving memorable performances in several Ingmar Bergman movies, most notably "Wild Strawberries") romantic love triangle melodrama (based on a play by Sidney Howard; a wealthy California vineyard owner has romantic correspondence with a San Francisco waitress, and he sends a picture of his young handsome brother and pretends it is him; when his girlfriend meets him, he reveals the deception, and she seemingly does not mind, but then she falls for his brother) starring Vilma Banky, Edward G. Robinson (in his fifth movie role!), Robert Ames (ironically, Ames is 4 years older than Robinson, playing the younger brother!), Richard Carle, and Lloyd Ingraham. Note that this movie was made the year before Little Caesar, and Edward G. Robinson was not yet a star, and so the advertising for the movie entirely focuses on Vilma Banky! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that the card measures very slightly under 14" x 22" (an extremely tiny amount in each direction!) and has no left, right, or bottom blank borders, but it has NOT been trimmed (this was done at a time when MGM was experimenting with having as few borders as possible). Condition: good to very good. The card was folded across the middle and there were rough creases on that fold and some stains, smudges, pinholes, and tiny bits of paper loss around the edges. There were a few faint stains scattered in the image, including in Banky's forehead. Someone restored the card without backing it (perhaps by gel-backing it), and it displays well, but you can see slight signs of the restoration and the defects described above.
