Auction History Result 8z0789 LOVE AFFAIR TC 1932 Humphrey Bogart before he was famous & Dorothy Mackaill, ultra rare! Date Sold 6/10/2021 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Love Affair, the 1932 Thornton Freeland aviation pilot flying romantic love triangle melodrama ("Youth's cry of freedom!"; "Based on the story by Ursula Parrott") starring Dorothy Mackaill, Humphrey Bogart, Jack Kennedy, Barbara Leonard, and Hale Hamilton. This was Bogart's 10th movie. He had a starring role in a "A Devil with Women" in 1930, and in several others including this one, but he didn't really hit it big, perhaps because he had a different image from the persona he achieved stardom with. After failing to achieve major success in Hollywood, a disillusioned Bogart returned to Broadway, and then hit it big in "The Petrified Forest", and the rest, as they say, is history!

We have only previously auctioned a scene card (in "fair" condition) and a few stills from this movie (and NO other movie paper) until we received this title card (and we also were consigned the best scene card, which we are currently auctioning in a different auction)! 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 around the edges, with a few tiny stains and smudges scattered in the image. 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
