Important Added Info: Note that, in the early days of movie making, when lobby cards were first made (around 1915), studios would issue sets of the cards in two sizes; the regular 11" x 14" size, and a smaller 8" x 10" size. The cards were identical in every way except for the different size. This practice continued through the early 1920s, at which point the studios abandoned the smaller lobby cards, likely because theaters either ordered 11" x 14" lobby cards or 8" x 10" stills, and did not order enough of the 8" x 10" lobby cards to justify them continuing to make them. Also note that this lobby card has been trimmed on its left blank border, and it now measures 8" x 9 3/4". Condition: good to very good. 1/4" of the left blank border has been unevenly trimmed off, and there are pinholes in each corner. Learn More about condition grades
