An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Saturday Night, the 1922 Cecil B. DeMille silent romantic love triangle class differences comedy melodrama ("Showing what happened when an heiress eloped with her chaffeur [sic] & when a millionaire married his laundress"; based on a story by Jeanie Macpherson; an odd story of a wealthy engaged couple who each fall in love with poor people; she with her chauffeur, and he with a woman who washes clothes!; they cancel their engagement and each get married, but they soon discover that their differences are too great, and ultimately, the two couples get divorced, and marry each other's spouses!) starring Leatrice Joy, Conrad Nagel, Edith Roberts, Jack Mower, and Julia Faye. People were very socially conscious in the 1920s, and it seems that the point of this movie was to stress that you should "remain with your own kind"! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that the vast majority of collectors would assume that this is a title card, but it is not! In the mid to late 1920s, Paramount made many sets of lobby cards where the seven scene cards all LOOK like title cards, but the actual title card is different from the seven scene cards (not too long after this, Paramount abandoned title cards altogether for the most part for the next forty-odd years, instead using a posed portrait of the stars in place of a title card). This scene card is from one of those sets where the scene cards are commonly mistaken for title cards. Please do not bid on it thinking it is a title card, as it is a scene 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: very good to fine. There are a few pinholes in the corners and a very tiny stain in the top left blank corner. Otherwise, the card is in excellent condition. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
