An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) Confessions of a Co-Ed ("...from her diary"), the 1931 David Burton & Dudley Murphy pregnant girl pre-Code bad girl melodrama starring Phillips Holmes, Sylvia Sidney, Norman Foster, Claudia Dell, Florence Britton, and a super low-billed Bing Crosby (who played one of a trio of singers called "The Rhythm Boys"). Note that Phillips Holmes had made an impression in some movies in the late 1920s. In 1931, he would get the lead in the first version of "An American Tragedy", which made it seem like he would become a major star, but that didn't materialize. He had a major affair with Libby Holman, but that was certainly complicated, and when they broke up, she immediately married his brother! Oddly, years later, Holman would have another very complicated affair with Montgomery Clift, who played the same part in the remake of "An American Tragedy", retitled "A Place in the Sun". Sadly, Holmes died in a plane crash in 1942. I am very surprised no one has made a movie about his life, or a joint movie about him and Libby Holman! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this is one of 22 lobby cards that were discovered under a floor! All of the cards have darkened, and all have staining and holes (mostly around the edges). These are all extremely rare lobby cards, and any of them can be restored by an expert professional. Since a top restorer can remove much of the darkening and staining through chemical means, and since many of the defects are in the borders, these cards will look great after professional restoration, and most of them will require little paint restoration within the image. Note that there is a pinhole near the center of the card close to the leg of the standing girl. There are also a bunch of odd white circular discolored areas in the bottom of the image, slightly to the right (I imagine these were caused by water staining, and I have no idea if they could be chemically removed or if they would need to be painted over). Condition: good. Learn More about condition grades
