Important Added Info: Note that even though the card has "The Spider's Web" on the title, and it has no indication of being a re-release, it is actually from the 1947 re-release of this movie. Columbia would sometimes issue undated re-release cards, although this card may have had the date in the left of the bottom border where there is paper loss. To complicate matters, an advanced collector tells us that the scene from this lobby card is actually from the 1941 sequel to "The Spider's Web", which was called "The Spider Returns"! Apparently, the studio was careless when creating these 1947 re-release cards and accidentally used the scene from the sequel. The collector informs us that the card is still extremely rare, and of course, it has a great image of Warren Hull in costume! Condition: good. There are three areas of paper loss in the bottom blank border and some stains and smudges around the edges of the card. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back of the card! Learn More about condition grades
