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! Note that this lobby card has been trimmed and it now measures 11" x 13 3/4" [28 x 35 cm]. Condition: good to very good. The card was slightly and neatly trimmed on its right blank border of 1/4" (only blank white paper was affected). The card was in a frame and has darkened (slightly unevenly with some faint smudges in the background and border areas), but other than the above defects, the card is in pretty nice 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
