Auction History Result 5c104 HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN TC '44 Boris Karloff & all top monster stars in make-up, ultra rare! Date Sold 3/9/2017 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) House of Frankenstein, the 1944 Erle C. Kenton Universal monster horror thriller ("All together...!"; "Frankenstein's Monster! The Wolf Man! Dracula! The Hunchback! The Mad Doctor!"; "Based on a Story by Curt Siodmak"; the sixth Universal Frankenstein movie, and this was the first "all-star" movie, with all of its best monsters brought together in a single movie!) starring Boris Karloff, Lon Chaney Jr. (as Lawrence Talbot, the Wolfman), John Carradine (as Dracula), J. Carroll Naish (as Daniel, the hunchback), Anne Gwynne, Peter Coe, Elena Verdugo, Lionel Atwill (Atwill must have had a terrible agent that he ended up behind Peter Coe, and Elena Verdugo in the billing!), Michael Mark, Frank Reicher, Charles Wagenheim, William Edmunds, Belle Mitchell, Sig Ruman, and Glenn Strange (as "Frankenstein's monster"). At least Atwill did better than poor Glenn Strange, who played the Frankenstein monster, and didn't even receive billing! Also, is it just me, or is it the height of insensitivity that a "hunchback" was treated as a monster on a par with Frankenstein, Dracula, and The Wolf Man? Also, why in the world did Glenn Strange not get billing on the posters? NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this card (one was 18 years ago, and one was 13 years ago). 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: good. The card has surface paper loss in the top left corner, extending into the edge of the image background. It has a yellowed tape stain in the bottom of the left blank border, with tiny paper loss below it in the blank corner. It has the tiniest of paper loss in the right blank corners. Other than the above, the card is in surprisingly nice condition and has had no restoration. The card can certainly be displayed exactly as it is, but we can also provide a high quality scan of the area of tiny paper loss in the top left corner of the image, in case the new owner wants to have it expertly restored.
