Important Added Info: Note that on this classic movie, and on several other major releases of the 1950s, MGM issued two entirely different sets of lobby cards! One set was the kind that is regularly seen. The other kind was a "photolobby" set with glossier color scenes from the movie, most often entirely different from the other set, and sometimes the photolobbies were black and white photos that had been hand-colored prior to production. The photolobbies are at least as rare as the regular lobby cards! Note that in the 1930s and 1940s, MGM issued yet a third kind of color 11" x 14", called a "color glos" 11" x 14", but these were on a photo paper, whereas the 1950s photolobbies are on regular lobby card-like stock. UPDATED 05/04/2012: Note that a knowledgeable collector pointed out that a complete set of these photolobbies includes a title card, 16 scene cards, a marketing/instructions card, and an envelope. Condition: good. Each photolobby has pinholes, faint stains, and smudges scattered throughout, and some have paper loss in the corners. Learn More about condition grades
