IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT

Title Lobby Card (11" x 14")
Very Fine+
Columbia, 1934

This exquisite title card, originating from director Frank Capra's critically acclaimed comedy/drama, predates the film's sweeping victory at the Academy Awards. The piece remains in remarkable unrestored condition, with only minor foxing along the borders, a slight crease at one corner, and minimal wear. It stands as a significant piece for any collector of classic cinema memorabilia.

Starring Clark Gable as an out-of-work newspaper reporter and Claudette Colbert as an overindulged heiress, Frank Capra's classic screwball comedy was the first film to ever sweep all five major categories at the Oscars (Picture, Director, Actor, Actress and Screenplay) - a feat that's only been managed twice since.
