Frank Borzage's AFTER TOMORROW 1932 Charles and 50 similar items

This is a vintage original 11x14 in. US lobby card card from the popular 1930's pre-code Depression-themed drama, AFTER TOMORROW, released in 1932 by the Fox Film Corporation and directed by Frank Borzage. During the Great Depression, a engaged couple (Charles Farrell, Marian Nixon) faces financial and family troubles that obstruct their marriage. The image features a great pre-code scene of handsome Peter Piper (Charles Farrell) sitting on the front steps of an apartment building as he casually admires the beautiful legs of Betty (Greta Granstedt) while his fiancee, Sidney Taylor (Marian Nixon), glares at the blonde from his other side. This vintage original lobby card is unrestored in fine- condition with a tiny chip on the top left corner with a small area of ink smearing from when the card was printed; random areas of light foxing along the edge of the top and right borders; light signs of wear on the top right corner; a tiny chip in the top half of the right border; a 0.75 in. horizontal tear in the bottom half of the right border; light signs of wear on the bottom corners; and a 0.5 in. horizontal tear on the left border where the stair railing ends. There are no pinholes or other flaws and the color tints are fresh and vibrant without any signs of fading. Provenance: The Morris Everett Jr. Collection. From IMDb: "Excellent early talking picture with loads of "pre-code" racy language and situations, scandalous behavior, and a genuinely touching romance between Charles Farrell and Marian Nixon. Don't be fooled into thinking this is just another light romance. The terrific dialog is often surprisingly frank, especially when Minna Gombell -- in the performance of her life -- tells her daughter things no child should hear from a parent. Even 75 years later, that scene is genuinely shocking. All the parts are well acted, but a particular standout is Josephine Hull; her scenes with William Collier Sr. are absolutely hilarious. Direction by Frank Borzage is, as usual, nearly flawless. This film really should be much better known."
