An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) A Bill of Divorcement, the 1932 George Cukor father/daughter family relationship mental illness melodrama ("From the play by Clemence Dane"; about a man who returns home after fifteen years in a mental institution to find that things are not the way they were when he left) starring John Barrymore, Katharine Hepburn (in her very first role, and she was immediately noticed as a major talent!), Billie Burke, David Manners, and Paul Cavanagh NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that first release 1932 lobby cards from this, Katharine Hepburn's first movie, are incredibly rare. We have never auctioned even a single lobby card from this movie until we received this lobby card, and Hepburn is pictured on it (we haven't seen the set, but we would think that she was only pictured on a limited number of cards!). Also 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. Condition: good to very good. The card had pinholes and some stains around the edges, with some staining in the bottom center, extending up to the bottom of the "O" of "BARRYMORE", and diminishing from the left and right of that area (you can see where the staining was by looking at our scan of the back of the card). The card had a pinhole above Barrymore's mustache below his nose, and another pinhole in the table at left. Overall, the card was in good condition prior to restoration. A talented restorer gel backed the card (meaning they backed the card onto a gel material) and they then performed excellent restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, so that the card still exactly looks and feels like an original card (and it is!), with no backing at all. You can see signs of the restoration, but the card displays really well! Learn More about condition grades
