An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More)

H.G. Wells' Island of Lost Souls, the classic 1933 Erle C. Kenton Universal genetic experimentation fantasy horror thriller ("The Panther Woman lured men on - only to destroy them - body and soul!"; "The Panther Woman -the body of a siren - the heart of a child - the soul of a cruel Jungle Killer"; loosely based on the novel 'The Island of Dr. Moreau' by H.G. Wells) starring Charles Laughton (as Dr. Moreau), Bela Lugosi, Richard Arlen, Leila Hyams (as "Ruth Thomas"), Kathleen Burke (billed as "The Panther Woman"; in her first movie role!), Arthur Hohl, Stanley Fields, Paul Hurst, and a bunch of "manimals" (half man, half animal!)

Important Added Info: Note that first release lobby cards from this classic horror movie have always been extremely scarce. In 1997, we auctioned a complete set of cards individually, and in 2017, we were consigned three single scene cards (which sold for $2,300, $1,150, and $1,100). Now, six years later, we have been consigned one more first release card! Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has.

Condition: very good. The card has a 1/2" tear in the bottom border, with an enlarged pinhole to the left of it in the yellow and white area. It has a faint water stain in the right of the top border, slightly entering the top of the "OU" of "SOULS", and there are some faint smudges and faint dot stains in the upper right border. There are a few other really minor border defects and a pinhole and a scuff in the top center background area. Other than the above, the card is in nice condition. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
