Note that Universal incredibly deceptively advertised this movie! The movie was pre-sold as a Karloff/Lugosi film even though Lugosi only has a small part. They gave Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi equal top billing, and the one-sheet has large head shots of both stars, and poor Stanley Ridges, who was actually the star of the movie, is not even pictured on the poster, although they found room for an image of Anne Nagel! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: very good. The title card had a 2" tear in the middle of the left border that was repaired with clear tape from the back and it had five other tiny tears in the borders that were repaired with small pieces of clear tape on the back. The card with Lugosi standing over the girl has a 1" tear in the left border that was repaired with clear tape from the back. The card with Lugosi being grabbed by the man and girl has tape stains on the front of the borders, and the card with Karloff with the hypodermic has a 1" tear in the bottom right corner that was repaired with tape from the back. There are tiny staple holes in the corners of all the cards. Other than the above and some smudges around the edges, the cards are in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
