An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) One Foot In Heaven, the classic 1941 Irving Rapper biography religious feel-good family melodrama ("Folks, meet a grand FATHER! He's the affable, laffable head of the most delightful family that ever stepped out of America's screens..... Into America's hearts!"; "Just one big happy family! And hundreds of big happy laughs!"; "Father He's the head of his family...and at the bottom of all their troubles!"; "Mother Why she married Father, we'll never know! [Ask Dad, he knows!]"; "Sister She doesn't chase fellows-Father does! He's the town's champ chaperone!"; "Brother Father gets him out of almost as many scrapes as he gets into!"; "From the book by Hartzell Spence"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; about a minister and his family) starring Fredric March, Martha Scott, Beulah Bondi, Gene Lockhart, Elisabeth Fraser, Harry Davenport, Laura Hope Crews, and Grant Mitchell. Note that Warner Bros was concerned about a movie about a good Christian minister (unfounded, as it turned out), so they massively downplayed the religious connection in their paper advertising! The title card does not have one mention of religion at all, and Fredric March is not shown wearing a collar! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: 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. We are doing something in this set of auctions we rarely do! A couple of years ago, we were approached by a very long time collector, and he asked us if he could give us an entire auction of single lobby cards by himself. We agreed, and held that auction in 2017, and later that same year, a different collector sent us a different group of 999 lobby cards and we repeated the process. Now we have a third such "single owner" collection. This one was originally assembled in Australia, which is why some of the cards have either Australian paper snipes attached or Australian ratings stamps (but many do not have them). This collection originally contained 1,100 cards, and we auctioned 100 of them in our March Major Auction, and now we are auctioning the remaining 999 in THIS set of auctions, and after this auction, there will be no more cards to be offered. As will immediately be evident when you look at the cards, many of them are from titles where you almost never see any lobby cards, so this is a rare opportunity to acquire many cards that almost never are offered for sale or at auction! Condition: good to very good. There is a tiny pinhole in March's upper lip, with some other pinholes around the edges. There is a piece of tape on the back of the center of the top border, but it was not put there for any restoration purpose. Learn More about condition grades
