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

A Guy Named Joe, the 1944 Victor Fleming World War II (WWII) military airplane aviation pilot angel romantic love triangle fantasy melodrama ("A guy a gal a pal it's swell!"; "Screen Play by Dalton Trumbo"; about a WWII pilot who is killed, and who is made a guardian angel to another pilot, and then that pilot meets and falls in love with the dead pilot's girlfriend, and the angel must realize that it is right to do the noble thing and help his girlfriend forget him and find love with the living pilot!) starring Spencer Tracy, Irene Dunne, Van Johnson, Ward Bond, James Gleason, Lionel Barrymore, Barry Nelson, and Esther Williams. Note that it is likely this movie was made with this odd "love triangle" (where one of the principals was dead!), no doubt to help women who had lost their husbands or boyfriends in World War II to not feel so guilty about finding a new love afterwards!

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair. The card had bleed-through from marker writing on the back, which included in Tracy's face and in the title area. Overall, the card was in fair condition prior to linenbacking. The card was backed onto linen, and the backer did a pretty good job of covering the bleed-through, but it is still noticeable on close inspection. However, after the card was backed, it acquired much surface paper loss around the edges (almost all in the blank borders). Please read our description above and look at our super-sized images before placing a bid on this card.
