THE PHILADELPHIA STORY

Lobby Card (11" x 14")
Fine+
MGM, 1940

This beautiful card from director George Cukor's classic comedy/romance had minor professional restoration to remove a vertical crease to the left of Grant's ear with light touch-up to correct an enlarged pinhole near the upper right corner and to remove a small area of staining in the lower credits box and into the background area. There was paper loss on the corners and on the center of the top border that were expertly replaced. The card presents beautifully with bright, vivid colors and features a great image of these two Hollywood legends.

"The Great Dictator" resonated strongly with audiences, becoming Chaplin's most commercially successful work. Today, it is celebrated by critics as not only one of the greatest comedies ever made but also as a profoundly important piece of cinematic satire
