An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (measures 11" x 14") (Learn More)

I Wake Up Screaming (the movie was made under the working title of "Hot Spot", but was released under that title and as "I Wake Up Screaming" and movie paper exists with both titles), the 1941 H. Bruce Humberstone crime film noir murder mystery thriller ("Three of the hottest names in Hollywood... In a picture that makes the screen sizzle!"; "From the novel 'I Wake Up Screaming' by Steve Fisher"; about a model who is murdered, and the police inspector is sure the sports promoter who helped her get started killed her because she was leaving him, but the model's sister helps solve the murder) starring Betty Grable (in a rare non-musical dramatic role!), Victor Mature, Carole Landis, Laird Cregar, William Gargan, Alan Mowbray, Allyn Joslyn, Elisha Cook Jr., Ralph Dunn, and Dick Rich

Important Added Info: Note that posters and lobby cards were printed with the working title of "Hot Spot", before the title was changed to "I Wake Up Screaming". Some of those posters and lobby cards were then sniped with the new title. The lobby card offered here is from the paper printed with the working title, "Hot Spot".

Condition: good to very good. The card had staining around the edges and in a few places in the image, including in the top center of the girl's face at top right, and some restorer bleached the card, which reduced the staining, and then did touch up to the stains within the image, including the center of the girl's face. The restoration to the card is somewhat noticeable in the girl's face, and you can see traces of the border staining. If I owned this card, I would likely have a restorer do additional touch up to the girl's face. Note that the card was not backed in any way, and that the restoration was done directly to the front of the card.
