Auction History Result 2t1295 LA BOHEME LC 1926 John Gilbert misunderstands Lillian Gish & Gilbert Roland, ultra rare! Date Sold 8/30/2022 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) La Boheme, the 1926 King Vidor silent Paris France romantic melodrama ("Suggested by Henry Murger's 'Life in the Latin Quarter'"; set in 1830s Paris, about a group of poor artists and writers who meet a beautiful seamstress, and about all of their struggles to succeed, and also just to survive) starring Lillian Gish, John Gilbert, Renee Adoree, Roy D'Arcy, Karl Dane, Frank Currier, George Hassell, Edward Everett Horton, and "other stars". Note that Puccini's famous 1896 opera of this name was based on Murger's 1851 novel, and this movie only credits the novel and not Puccini or his opera, so we suspect that had something to do with MGM only buying the rights to the novel and not the opera. There were several silent versions of this prior to this movie and many sound versions after it! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have previously auctioned five lobby cards from this movie, but we have never auctioned THIS 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: fair to good. The card has brown paint stains across the top and a few other stains around the edges, extending into the credits and the MGM logo area. There are tack holes around the edges. Someone wrote their name in pencil in the middle of the left border extending into the image background. There are many stains on the back of the card, but they mostly do not affect the front. Obviously, this card can be restored, but do not bid on it unless you can accept its significant defects. Learn More about condition grades
