What's a
TITLE CARD
? These were among many (not all) sets of Lobby Cards for movies released between the 1920s and the early 1970s.
A regula
r
lobby card
had a large scene from the movie, the title of the movie, some decorative art and (sometimes) a catchy line of promotion. A true
Lobby title card
was a miniature version of the full-size poster art. This was handy for theatres with small outside display windows. An entire window might have eight actual frames, without poster space. So a "Title Card" was foremost devoted to the title and the leading star names which would normally be seen on a One-sheet (27x41") poster or larger-sized posters.
