Green romantic airplane aviation sky diving smuggling crime melodrama ("He took his fun where he found it"; about a pair of ex-Marines, and one tries to become a stuntman doing parachute stunts, but his girlfriend, known as "Alabama" because of her southern accent, gets him to agree to quit, and he gets a job flying airplanes, but doesn't know that it is for a gang of crooks smuggling drugs; at the movie's climax, the men catch the crooks, and they re-enlist in the Marines, but only after Alabama agrees to marry her boyfriend) starring Douglas Fairbanks Jr., Leo Carrillo, Bette Davis (as Alabama), Frank McHugh, Claire Dodd, and Harold Huber

Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one other lobby card from this movie in all our years of auctioning, and it sold for $2,300! 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 has tiny surface paper loss and a tiny pinhole in the bottom center of the image. It has faint smudges around the edges, with smudges in the top right of McHugh's T-shirt and a few faint smudges scattered in the rest of the image. Note that this card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back. I would think most collectors could display this incredibly rare card as it is, or certainly, it is likely that a top restorer could remove most or all of the smudges through chemical means. Please look closely at our super-sized images before bidding on this great card.
