An Undated (probably 1930s) Re-Release Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Ladies They Talk About, the 1933 Howard Bretherton & William Keighley women-in-prison crime melodrama (based on the play by Dorothy Mackaye & Carlton Miles; set in San Quentin State Penitentiary; about a woman who gets involved with some crooks planning a robbery, and she is caught during the robbery, and there is not much evidence against her, but she confesses and is sent to a state prison, where she is incarcerated with tough black and white female inmates!) starring Barbara Stanwyck, Preston Foster, Lyle Talbot, Dorothy Burgess, Lillian Roth, and Maude Eburne. Note that there were many surprising elements to this pre-Code women-in-prison movie, including having black female inmates with speaking roles and a lesbian scene, something that was never done in movies from the major Hollywood studios at this time. This was one of those movies that helped bring about the Production Code, and, of course, the wonderful art a barely clad Barbara Stanwyck on the one-sheet, by famed pinup artist Alberto Vargas, certainly greatly helped "sell" the movie!

Important Added Info: Note that this card (which was created on a heavy board backing, thicker than "regular" lobby cards from the 1930s) is clearly from a re-release, but we don't know whether it is from the mid or late 1930s, or even the early 1940s. We have never auctioned another card from this re-release before, and it has really great border art! 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: fair. The card has slightly darkened. There are several tiny areas of surface paper loss within the image, including in the stars' faces. See our super-sized images to get a good sense of the exact condition of this card.
