A Set of 12 2021 "Faux" Lobby Cards (measure 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]; see below) (Learn More) The Phantom of the Opera, the classic 1925 Rupert Julian Universal silent Paris France opera house murder mystery horror thriller ("Carl Laemmle presents Gaston Leroux's magnificent story of Parisian gaiety and intrigue"; "Weird! Wild! Wonderful!"; from the novel by Gaston Leroux, which was published in a serialized format in 1909 and 1910) starring Lon Chaney Sr. (in the title role as Erik, The Phantom), Norman Kerry (as Vicomte Raoul de Chagny), Mary Philbin (as Christine Daae), Arthur Edmund Carewe (as Ledoux), Gibson Gowland (as Simon Buquet), Carla Laemmle (uncredited as one of the ballerinas), Alexander Bevani, and "5000 others". Note that this movie was remade in 1943 with Claude Rains as the Phantom and Susannah Foster as Christine. In 1986, Andrew Lloyd Webber made a musical stage play version, which is perhaps the most successful stage play of all time, and is still running on Broadway! In 2004, Webber's musical was made into a movie, with Gerard Butler and Emmy Rossum. Also note that as they did with many of their major productions at this time, Universal created two completely different sets of lobby cards, with different designs and two title cards, so there are sixteen first release cards, two sets of eight. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this is one of 47 "faux" lobby card sets we were consigned, which we are auctioning in 47 separate auctions! WHAT ARE THESE? We were consigned 68 similar faux lobby sets (but entirely different images and titles), which were created in 2021 by a long time collector who (like so many of us) chose to stay home that year a lot due to Covid, and he made those 68 faux sets to help pass the time! He was inspired by the "Fantasy #9" lobby cards created several decades ago, each of which is from a classic horror/sci-fi movie, showing a great scene that wasn't in the original set! He created those 68 sets, using top images from each film! He did not make them through a computer program, but instead pasted together actual prints to create mock-ups. On most of these he made 8 card sets, but on some of them he created sets with 9, 10, 11, 12, or 13 and there is also a two part set of 25 and 26 cards! He then printed just THREE of each set, and he promised not to reprint them (and he has not). He numbered the first card in each set, and what we offered was the "1 of 3" of each set, which meant there are only two other sets of each, and there will never be more of those. Our consignor told us that he would keep one of the three sets of each, but MAY give us the remaining third set at a later time to auction. But the winner of those 68 auctions have just one of three of these numbered sets that were created! NOW THE SAME CONSIGNOR HAS CREATED 47 ADDITIONAL SETS! These are just like the first 68, except all different titles and images. AND EVERYTHING ELSE IS THE SAME! There are just three of each sets, and we are auctioning the number 1 of 3 of each set (in 47 separate auctions). AND OUR CONSIGNOR AGAIN PROMISES TO NEVER REPRINT THESE! So once again this is a great chance to get any of these really cool faux lobby sets! Condition: fine. These faux lobby cards are in excellent condition! Learn More about condition grades
