Auction History Result 4d0353 GORILLA LC 1927 Fred Kelsey, Walter Pidgeon & cast surrounded by art of giant ape head & arms! Date Sold 5/3/2020 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The Gorilla, the 1927 Alfred Santell silent monster murder horror thriller ("Ah!"; "Don't worry about the Gorilla - Mulligan and Garrity are on the job!"; loosely based on the play by Ralph Spence, one of the earliest "haunted house" type plays; by the time it was made into a movie, its plot had become so cliched that this movie plays it for laughs, and was apparently quite funny, and quite successful!) starring Charles Murray (billed as "Charley Murray"; as Garrity), Fred Kelsey (as Mulligan), Alice Day, Tully Marshall, Claude Gillingwater, Walter Pidgeon, Brooks Benedict, Syd Crossley, and John Kolb (uncredited, as the man in the gorilla suit). Note that Walter Pidgeon plays a handsome young man in this movie who is not what he seems, and that is an important plot twist. Oddly, three years later, First National remade this movie, and they significantly changed plot elements. The lead lady and the cast also changed, EXCEPT for Walter Pidgeon, but oddly, his character was quite a bit changed! Note that this is a "lost" film, which means that no surviving copies are thought to exist. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. Condition: very good. There is a faint diagonal crease in the bottom left blank corner, with a few tiny creases in the other blank corners. The card was printed slightly off register, meaning that the red color is slightly off from where it should be, but it only slightly affects the image (see our image). Other than the above, the lobby card is in nice condition! Note that this card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
