Seiter hotel slapstick comedy ("Mama - those men are here again!"; The Marx Bros. are in a hotel and can't pay their bill, and they refuse to leave, with many great comic scenes) starring The Marx Brothers (Groucho Marx, Chico Marx, and Harpo Marx), Lucille Ball, Ann Miller, Frank Albertson, and Cliff Dunstan. Note that not only did this movie have the Marx Bros., but it also had Lucille Ball, who a little over a decade later would become America's favorite comedienne!

Also note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this window card (7 years ago and 17 years ago), and they sold for $1,606 and $2,513)! Condition: poor to fair. Some theater needed a lobby card to display, and they trimmed this window card to 11" x 14". It deletes the entire image of Harpo and a bit of the "MARX BROS.". One could have the top half restored, but consider this before placing a bid on this heavily trimmed window card. Learn More about condition grades
