Auction History Result #5158 TOBOR THE GREAT TC '54 funky robot! Date Sold 10/30/2003Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) Tobor the Great, the 1954 Lee Sholem science fiction (sci-fi) robot fantasy thriller ("Man-made monster with Every human emotion"; about a boy who befriends his grandfather's robot and spies are trying to capture it) starring Charles Drake, Karin Booth, Billy Chapin, Taylor Holmes, Steven Geray, Henry Kulky, J. Lewis Smith (in the title role as Tobor), Peter Brocco, Hal Baylor, and Norman Field. Note that many posters show the robot carrying a sexy woman, but that apparently never happens in the movie (he is only seen carrying the boy). In case anyone doubts Hollywood being endlessly creative, note that Tobor's name is "Robot" backwards! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card is part of an amazing collection of 132 horror/sci-fi lobby cards (our items #5040 through #5171). Included are 121 title cards from 1950 to 1964, including just about every horror/sci-fi movie made during that period, including all of the most famous titles! Also included is all seven scene cards from "The Day the Earth Stood Still", and a great scene card from "House of Wax". The collector who assembled this collection did so over a span of several decades, and to duplicate it would surely take at least that long, if one started today. But on October 30th, every one of these lobby cards will go to a new owner, as all are being sold with NO reserve. Also note that we have listed these lobby cards in strict alphabetical order. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire rare lobby cards that almost never are offered for sale! Condition: good to very good. Canadian censor stamp at left in the middle of the image of the woman and robot; pair of tack holes in the top of the "T" in "TOBOR" at upper center as well as one in the middle of the bottom blank border; minor creases and smudges around the edges of the card Learn More about condition grades
