Date Sold 8/8/2019Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 4 Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Lobby Card (Learn More) Boston Blackie's Little Pal, the 1918 E. Mason Hopper silent detective romantic thriller melodrama starring Bert Lytell (in the title role as Boston Blackie), Rhea Mitchell, Rosemary Theby, Joey Jacobs, and Howard Davies. Note that this is the very first of a series of silent movies made from 1918 through the 1920s starring the fictional character "Boston Blackie", a reformed crook turned detective, which were based on short stories by Jack Boyle. The character was revived in 1941 with Chester Morris playing Boston Blackie, and there were 14 movies in the 1940s! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that, in the early days of movie making, when lobby cards were first made (around 1915), studios would issue sets of the cards in two sizes; the regular 11" x 14" size, and a smaller 8" x 10" size. The cards were identical in every way except for the different size. This practice continued through the early 1920s, at which point the studios abandoned the smaller lobby cards, likely because theaters either ordered 11" x 14" lobby cards or 8" x 10" stills, and did not order enough of the 8" x 10" lobby cards to justify them continuing to make them. The cards are ultra-rare and we have never auctioned them before, or ANY movie paper from this title in all of our years of auctioning! Condition: very good. Each has a few tiny pinholes in portions of the blank borders only. The ultra-rare cards are otherwise in excellent condition! Learn More about condition grades
