Leon, you are assembling a very nice collection of ephemera that is related to your fabulous type-card collection!
I picked up this Leader Theatre advertising card (it's about the size of a standard business/calling card) recently at a flea market in Arlington, VA, which is just across the Potomac River from Washington, DC, where this movie theater was located. Advertising for the Leader Theatre is found on the backs of W573 and W575-1 style cards, and both versions are truly rare. From doing a bit of research I learned that this theater opened in 1910 and closed in 1960 - the part of town where it was located became rather seedy after WWII, and in 1953 this theater changed its name to Pix Theatre and screened adult movies until it shut down. I assume this advertising card is from 1931 inasmuch as the movie advertised, "Ten Nights in a Bar Room," was released on March 1, 1931. Leon, I don't collect this sort of ephemera, so if you are interested in adding it to your collection, please email me. Val

Sometimes the wrapper is the card:

Leon, if you don't have it already, we can certainly make it yours.
