An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More)

Cheaters at Play, the 1932 Hamilton MacFadden romantic jewel thief ocean voyage crime thriller ("Based on story by Louis Joseph Vance"; a ridiculously complicated story about a former master jewel thief who always worked alone, but who reformed, and he goes on a cruise, and there is a young man who steals massively expensive jewels, and the former thief catches him, but learns that the young man is his son, who is trying to imitate his father, and so he helps the son return the jewels and win the heart of the jewel owner's niece!) starring Thomas Meighan (as The Lone Wolf), Charlotte Greenwood, William Bakewell, Barbara Weeks, Linda Watkins, Olin Howland, James Kirkwood, and Ralph Morgan. Note that The Lone Wolf was a character in a series of eight novels that author Louis Joseph Vance wrote starting in 1914, and the first movie starring the character was in 1917, with Bert Lytell in the lead role. There were three movies after that with three different actors in the lead role. Then Lytell returned to the character, and there were many movies in a short period, and then Lytell starred in some sound movies as the character. In the 1940s, Warren William starred in a series of Lone Wolf movies, and then the character was played by Gerald Mohr. There were a few single entries mixed in where other actors played the lead role. In all, there were 24 Lone Wolf movies! The character was a master thief turned detective, and there were several other characters who were very similar, but few had the enduring popularity of The Lone Wolf!

Important Added Info: Note that first release 1932 posters and lobby cards from this movie are incredibly rare. We have only auctioned a one-sheet, a glass slide, and an 8x10 still from this movie until we received this title card! Note that there is a stamp on the back that reads "FROM THE COLLECTION OF Michael R. Hawks", who most would consider the premier lobby card collector and expert in the world (and he is still an active collector, looking for the last few items he needs!). 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: very good. There is darkening across the bottom edge of the bottom blank border. Otherwise, the card is in nice condition. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
