Aubrey Smith, Elizabeth Patterson, Blanche Friderici, and Ethel Griffies. Note that original 1932 U.S. movie paper of any kind is unbelievably scarce! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have previously auctioned two lobby cards from this movie, but we have never before auctioned THIS card (which has the wonderful and provocative scene where Chevalier makes MacDonald a replacement dress, and she realizes he really IS a tailor)! 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. What IS gelbacking? Learn More Condition: very good. The card had tiny pinholes and smudges around the edges, with small paper loss in the top right corner that very slightly entered the background. Overall, the card was in good to very 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 slight signs of the restoration, but the card displays really well! Learn More about condition grades
