Important Added Info: Note that Realart put the second and third Frankenstein movies into a single double bill, and created special double bill movie paper for that release. They went all out in designing really cool lobby cards! They dubbed the double bill "The Phantom Monster Show!", and put "Horror Hit No. 1" and "Horror Hit No. 2" on the two movies. They gave the lobby cards really cool border art of a series of skulls, and they cleverly put scenes from each movie on their own card, rather than using split images. This means that some of these cards have scenes that are very similar to that of the original release cards, and some are unique to this set. The title card has ten inset scenes from the two movies. These are really cool lobby cards! Condition: No condition recorded. there was a paper snipe glued over the "SON OF FRANKENSTEIN" title at lower left; it is long gone and there is a faint glue residue over the title; it is barely noticeable except when the card is tilted to the light; there are staple holes, creases, light smudges, and small tears around the edges of the card; there is a pinhole near the exact center of the card; there are some faint creases and scuffs throughout the card but they are not very noticeable at all within the image area
