An Original Vintage Theatrical Chapter #7 ( From Death To Life) Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Overland Stage Raiders, the 1938 George Sherman cowboy western ("Based on characters created by William Colt MacDonald") starring The Three Mesquiteers (John Wayne, Ray 'Crash' Corrigan, and Max 'Alibi' Terhune), Louise Brooks, and Anthony Marsh. Note that pre-talkie star Louise Brooks turned her back on Hollywood in 1929, and went to Europe and made some memorable films. In the early 1930s she attempted to return to Hollywood (minus her trademark flapper hairdo), but met with little success. She is prominently billed in this movie, but is not pictured on the posters.

Important Added Info: Note that we have previously auctioned six first release lobby cards from this movie, but we have never before auctioned THIS card, which shows BOTH John Wayne AND Louise Brooks! Note that this card has been "gel backed". What does that mean? It means that a talented restorer backed the card onto a gel material, and they then performed restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, and afterward the card still looks and feels like an original card (and it is!), with no backing at all. Many collectors prefer this method of restoration to paperbacking or linenbacking, because with those methods the card no longer looks like it was not backed. Gel backing can't be used with cards that have major paper loss or other major defects, but for the cards it can be used on, it is really an excellent method of restoration! 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. What IS gelbacking? Learn More Condition: good to very good.
