Design for Living (Paramount, 1933). Lobby Card

Design for Living (Paramount, 1933). Lobby Card (11" X 14"). A daring film for the time, this is the story of three friends living in Paris, Tom Chambers (Fredric March), George Curtis (Gary Cooper), and Gilda Farrell (Miriam Hopkins), who decide to share an apartment... on a strictly platonic basis, of course. The film was heavily censored upon its original release, and, after the advent of the Hays Code in 1934, was banned altogether! Both March and Cooper, who wind up as rivals for their roommate's affections, are pictured on this highly desirable card, which shows corner bends in the bottom right and top left, and a light scuff mark in the top center. Aside from these minor flaws, the card is very clean, and displays very nicely. Very Fine-. ****

Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 22.50% Buyer's Premium with a $9 minimum Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Auctions, and all other information should be considered preliminary. Lot:28722
