Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this 1932 re-release title card!

Note that in 1932, Van Beuren purchased the rights to the 12 Charlie Chaplin Mutual shorts, and re-released them with sound through RKO (because Chaplin did not own the rights, he was powerless to stop them from doing so). They gave the shorts new names (often similar to the original names), which can make it difficult to identify the original film. Unusually, all of the cards have a "full bleed", meaning there are no white borders and the image goes to the edge on all four sides (in this case, a very tiny part of the credits at bottom appear to be cut off, but we think the card was just printed this way, due to lack of quality control).
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: very good to fine. There is a pinhole in each corner and one in the center of the card. Otherwise, the card is in nice condition. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
