A 1941 Re-Release Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Smilin' Through, the 1932 Sidney Franklin romantic love triangle melodrama ("From the play by Allen L. Martin"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; a pretty wacky story of a man whose fiancee was killed by her insanely jealous ex-boyfriend on their wedding day, and years later, the man is now in charge of his niece, who looks exactly like his fiancee, and she is engaged to marry a man who looks exactly like the man who killed his fiancee, and naturally, he does all he can to break them up!) starring Norma Shearer (in a dual role), Fredric March (in a dual role), Leslie Howard, O.P. Heggie, Ralph Forbes, and Beryl Mercer NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card is from a re-release. It is undated, but we had the one-sheet from the same re-release, and based on that poster's litho number, we are certain that this re-release took place in 1941. Interestingly, the re-make of this movie (which starred Jeanette MacDonald & Brian Aherne) was also released in 1941. The poster's tagline indicates that audiences wanted to see the older version of the film, and we imagine that both could have been playing at the same time (which may have been very confusing to audiences)! 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: good to very good. The card has tack holes in the corners but is otherwise in really nice condition. However, the card has a very unusual printing defect! Part of Howard's face is flesh colored and the rest of it is a different color (see our image). This is surely something that occurred during the printing. We don't know how or why this could have occurred, but bear this in mind before bidding on this card. 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
