An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (11x14; LC; measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) Why Men Leave Home, the 1924 John M. Stahl silent romantic love triangle marriage divorce comedy melodrama (about a young couple who marries, and they soon grow apart; the man has an affair with his secretary and his wife divorces him, and he marries the secretary, but his grandmother cleverly gets the divorced couple together at her house, and then pretends to be very sick, and the house is quarantined, and during the time they are stuck together, they reconcile and re-marry!) starring Lewis Stone, Helene Chadwick, Mary Carr, William V. Mong, and Alma Bennett. Note that Mary Carr became a major star in the mid 1910s around the age of 40, playing the parts of saintly mothers. She continued to make movies (switching to grandmother roles) through the mid 1930s, and then continued with mostly uncredited parts until the mid 1950s. She passed away in 1973 at the age of 99! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this is a hand-colored card. In the days of silent movies 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 to fine. The card has a few smudges around the edges. Otherwise, the card is in very nice condition! Note that this lobby card has no tape whatsoever on the front or back, and it has never had any restoration of any kind!
