Date Sold 4/2/2019Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) It's a Wonderful World, the 1939 W.S. Van Dyke (billed as "W.S. Van Dyke, II") romantic fantasy screwball comedy ("Screen Play by Ben Hecht"; about a private detective who is wanted by the police after getting too involved in a murder investigate, and he goes on the run with a somewhat wacky poetess who he initially kidnaps, but over time, she comes to fall in love with him!) starring Claudette Colbert, James Stewart (Jimmy Stewart; collectively billed as "Claudette Colbert and James Stewart in a wonderful picture"), Guy Kibbee, Nat Pendleton, Frances Drake, Edgar Kennedy, and Ernest Truex. Note that this movie has many familiar elements that screenwriter Ben Hecht borrowed from movies like The 39 Steps and The Thin Man, but the movie is quite entertaining and the two lead stars' great "star power" makes this a very entertaining movie!

Important Added Info: Note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. We are doing something in this set of auctions we rarely do! A couple of years ago, we were approached by a very long time collector, and he asked us if he could give us an entire auction of single lobby cards by himself. We agreed, and held that auction in 2017, and later that same year, a different collector sent us a different group of 999 lobby cards and we repeated the process. Now we have a third such "single owner" collection. This one was originally assembled in Australia, which is why some of the cards have either Australian paper snipes attached or Australian ratings stamps (but many do not have them). This collection originally contained 1,100 cards, and we auctioned 100 of them in our March Major Auction, and now we are auctioning the remaining 999 in THIS set of auctions, and after this auction, there will be no more cards to be offered. As will immediately be evident when you look at the cards, many of them are from titles where you almost never see any lobby cards, so this is a rare opportunity to acquire many cards that almost never are offered for sale or at auction! Condition: good to very good. There is tiny paper loss in the top left blank corner and someone taped a piece of another card to the back of that area. There is clear tape on the back of the other three corners, and there are a few other minor defects around the edges. Otherwise, the card is in pretty nice condition.
