Bluebeard's Eighth Wife, the classic 1938 Ernst Lubitsch France romantic idle rich marriage comedy ("He married in haste and repeated with pleasure!"; "Based on the play by Alfred Servoir"; "Screen Play by Charles Brackett & Billy Wilder"; "English Play Adaptation by Charlton Andrews"; about an American multi-millionaire who marries the daughter of a poor French aristocrat, and because she is his eighth wife, she works hard to keep him) starring Claudette Colbert (in the title role), Gary Cooper, Edward Everett Horton, David Niven, Elizabeth Patterson, Herman Bing, Franklin Pangborn, and Rolfe Sedan. Note that this movie combines wonderful direction by Ernst Lubitsch, great writing by Charles Brackett and Billy Wilder, and wonderful acting by the leads. It really "has it all"!

Important Added Info: 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 faint water staining down the right of the image and in the printing above and below it. You can see the staining much more clearly on the back of the card (see our images). The staining fortunately is only in the back of Colbert's hair, and a thin line down her dress, and then is larger in the bottom of her dress and in the end of the title. This is the sort of card that responds really well to professional restoration. It is likely that much or all of the light staining can be removed through chemical means, after which the card will look fantastic (although I think some collectors would display this great card on their wall just as it is). Other than the light staining, the card is in pretty nice condition with no restoration.
