Wow,won Judy Garland "Harvey Girls" poker lobby cd

I always wanted this lobby card. One web site was offering it for $195; I passed on it. Don't know what it is worth, but feels good to just get one on eBay for $57.

"This is an original lobby card from the 1946 MGM movie THE HARVEY GIRLS. The card features Judy Garland, John Hodiak & Angela Lansbury (all pictured in the card). The text at the bottom reads "He had written those charming love-letters for another....and now she found him just a gambler!" The card is in excellent condition."

One review:
"THE HARVEY GIRLS is a lighthearted musical comedy with some terrific tunes by Harry Warren and Johnny Mercer including the Oscar-winning "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe." Susan Bradley (Judy Garland) is a 19th-century mail-order bride who goes out west to work as a waitress at one of Fred Harvey's new restaurants. Ned Trent (John Hodiak) owns the local saloon, and his girl friend is Em (Angela Lansbury), a Mae West type who runs a bawdy house in the small New Mexico town. THE HARVEY GIRLS has a little of everything: songs, dance, action, romance, and the triumph of virtue and chastity over the forces of saloondom. Hodiak is suave and sophisticated as the gambler, and Garland was never more vibrant as the female lead. There is also some excellent supporting work by Ray Bolger, Marjorie Main, and Virginia O'Brien. Lenny Hayton received an Oscar nomination for his musical direction. "
