Scarface (United Artists, 1932). Lobby Card (11
<B>Scarface (United Artists, 1932).</B></I> Lobby Card (11" X 14"). Paul Muni blazed a bullet-riddled path across the screen in Howard Hughes's highly acclaimed gangster classic. This card is from the film's first release in 1932 and does not display "The Shame of a Nation" that was later stamped on so many of the original cards under the film's title. The controversy caused by the film upon its release, and the claim that it glorified gangsters, forced the Hays Commission to require the "addendum" to the film's original title. This fine example of an "unstamped" card has pinholes in the corners, and several more in the background at the upper right. The card also shows some very light creasing in the right border. Fine/Very Fine. *****<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
