An Original Vintage Theatrical Autographed Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 10" x 12 3/4" [25 x 32 cm]) (Learn More) The Enchanted Cottage, the 1924 John S. Robertson silent romantic melodrama (about two 'ugly' people who find a magical cottage where they look 'normal'; just as in the later 1945 version, the studio copped out by not having the stars look very "ugly" before they transform, so much of the point of the movie is diluted!) starring Richard Barthelmess, May McAvoy, Ida Waterman, Alfred Hickman, and Florence Short. Note that this movie was remade in 1945 starring Dorothy McGuire and Robert Young. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card has been personally autographed (signed) by May McAvoy! Our consignor purchased it from a very longtime collector who had met Miss McAvoy in the late 1970s in Los Angeles, and she signed this card for him. He does not have a certificate of authenticity, but we believe the signature to be authentic. Also note that first release 1924 movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have never auctioned even a single movie paper item from this movie until we received this lobby card! Also note that this lobby card has been trimmed and it now measures 10" x 12 3/4" [25 x 32 cm]. Finally, 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: fair to good. The card's borders were trimmed off and it was glued to a mat. There are glue stains on the back and some in the left of the top edge of the card. There is tiny paper loss in the bottom border. There is a pinhole in the chin of the girl at left and some stains in the upper right. In spite of the above, this extremely rare lobby card could be displayed as it is, or certainly, restoration could be performed. Learn More about condition grades
