An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Land of Liberty, the 1939 patriotic compilation ("139 famed stars! 1000 explosive thrills!"; "139 famed stars! 200 spectacular scenes! 1000 thrills!"; "The Civil War... brother against brother... friend against friend... but out of it rises a stronger nation!"; edited by Cecil B. Demille from 126 different films) starring (a Who's Who of Hollywood at the time!) "among the 139 stars who appear in this picture"; in alphabetical order: Don Ameche, George Arliss, Edward Arnold, John Barrymore, Lionel Barrymore, Warner Baxter, Wallace Beery, George Brent, Bob Burns, Claudette Colbert, Gary Cooper, Bette Davis, Irene Dunne, Henry Fonda, Joel McCrea, Fredric March, Robert Montgomery, Anna Neagle, George Raft, Randolph Scott, James Stewart, Lewis Stone, Margaret Sullavan, Spencer Tracy, and Loretta Young. Note that each of the lobby cards feature famous stars who made appearances in this DeMille documentary, so those who collect on those stars need to track down that specific scene card, as this IS a movie that starred that actor! Also, note that this film was intended to be a tribute to the beauty and history of the United States, and was shown at the New York World's Fair of 1939/1940, and the 1939 San Francisco Exposition. In 1940, MGM wide-released an updated & edited version (it was 98 minutes instead of the original 138) to theaters, and all known movie paper is from this wide release. Because the 1939 release was so limited (and likely had no mass produced posters), we consider the "regular" release items to be "first release". NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that the front of this lobby card has been laminated! It is quite likely that there is no way to reverse this process. However, I have seen many lobby cards that have been laminated for over 20 years, and the lamination does not hurt the cards in any way, plus it seems to completely protect them, while allowing them to be easily displayed with no fear of damage. HOWEVER, PLEASE DO NOT BID ON THIS LOBBY CARD UNLESS YOU WANT TO PURCHASE A LAMINATED LOBBY CARD! Condition: fair to good. Only the front of this card has been laminated . I have never seen solely the front laminated before, but it is almost surely NOT reversible, so please do not bid on this card unless you can accept this unusual defect.
