Auction History Result 1k256 KING OF THE WILD chapter 1 TC '31 Walter Miller, Nora Lane, Man Eaters, Boris Karloff billed! Date Sold 10/6/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Chapter #1 (Man Eaters) Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) King of the Wild, the 1931 B. Reeves Eason & Richard Thorpe Africa jungle adventure horror serial ("A Mascot Serial"; "An all-talking serial in twelve stirring chapters"; written by Ford Beebe) starring Walter Miller, Nora Lane, Dorothy Christy, Tom Santschi, Boris Karloff, Victor Potel, Carroll Nye, and Arthur McLaglen (as Bimi the Ape Man). Note that this movie was made prior to "Frankenstein", which resulted in Boris Karloff being fifth billed, and he is pictured on very few posters. Had the movie been released a year later, no doubt he would have been top billed! Also, this serial didn't start production with "all-talking" in mind, and some of the actors did not have very good speaking voiced and not much dialog was written. Though no one is actually credited, a great deal of narration was added to the serial in Post Production. It is generally thought that Boris Karloff (who had lots of stage experience) did all the voice-over narration. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.

The card has paper loss in the bottom left corner and many smudges, scuffs, and scratches scattered throughout. The top left corner was detached and someone put tape on the back of that area, but otherwise did no restoration. Learn More about condition grades
