Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) High Steppers, the 1926 Edwin Carewe silent England family relationship romantic love triangle melodrama (about a rich English Oxford student who is kicked out, and his family doesn't care because they are all decadent, and he tries to romance a married woman, but he meets an intelligent young lady who gets him a job as a reporter, and he changes his ways, and marries her) starring Lloyd Hughes, Mary Astor, Dolores Del Rio (third billed in her second movie appearance!), Rita Carewe, John T. Murray, Edwards Davis, Alec B. Francis, and Clarissa Selwynne. Note that Mary Astor plays the intelligent young lady, and Dolores Del Rio, in her second movie appearance, plays the rich married woman the young man thinks he is in love with. Note that this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note the unusual artwork which shows the characters in a giant top hat, the caption reads "Mama love papa?"! Note that this is a hand-colored card. In the days of silent movie prior to the invention of good quality full-color printing, studios would have lobby cards printed in black and white and then amazingly would hire women to hand-color the cards one at a time (apparently labor was very cheap at the time)! So, each card is colored slightly differently, and the coloring is never a perfect match. Condition: very good. There are stains in the bottom 1" of the card, more so in the right side. There are minor smudges and tiny tears in the other blank borders and a tiny chip off of the top right corner. There are tack holes within the top corners in the image Learn More about condition grades
