The Story of Alexander Graham Bell, the 1939 Irving Cummings historical telephone inventor biography ( "A Picture as Great as the Love it Immortalizes... A love as enduring as the miracle it wrought!"; "America's most thrilling story!"; "Out of the stirring past of this great nation emerges the drama of accomplishment that symbolizes the tradition of America! The dramatic romance of one who dreamed and struggled, loved and achieved."; "Original story by Ray Harris"; produced by Darryl F. Zanuck; a fictionalized biography of the inventor of the telephone) starring Don Ameche (in the title role as Alexander Graham Bell), Loretta Young, Henry Fonda (as Thomas Watson, who is immortalized in the first phone transmission, "Mr. Watson, come here I need you!"), Charles Coburn, Gene Lockhart, Spring Byington, Sally Blane, Polly Ann Young, Georgiana Young, and Bobs Watson. Note that Loretta Young's three real life sisters (Sally Blane, Polly Ann Young, and Georgiana Young) all appeared in this movie with her, making it a real "family affair"!

Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a large collection of jumbo lobby cards we were consigned (it includes some "vertical" star portraits as well). In addition to including many extremely rare titles, many of the jumbo lobby cards are in nice condition (some have staining or paper loss, which is clearly marked when it is present, but almost all the cards are not at all fragile, which is a big plus with this size of movie paper).

Condition: good. There is a pinhole with tiny paper loss near the center of the card. There are two 1" tears in the middle of the right border that were repaired with tape from the back. There are some faint smudges and some minor defects around the edges. The right one-third of the card is lightly rippled.
