Auction History Result 4y0248 WEREWOLF OF LONDON LC 1935 Valerie Hobson & Warner Oland by fallen monster & victim, rare! Date Sold 8/29/2023 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) Werewolf of London, the 1935 Stuart Walker England monster horror thriller ("Beware! Terror strikes in the night"; "Murder in the moonlight! Terror stalks! An unseen hand strikes!"; "Beware the wicked hour and the stalking being!"; "Beware the stalking being, half human, half beast!") starring Henry Hull (in the title role as the werewolf), Warner Oland (best remembered as Charlie Chan in the 20th Century Fox series), Valerie Hobson, Lester Matthews, Clark Williams, Spring Byington, Lawrence Grant, and J.M. Kerrigan. Note that this is the "forgotten" Universal horror movie of the 1930s, because Universal abandoned this portrayal of the werewolf, and created an entirely different wolf-man in 1941 with Lon Chaney Jr. in very different makeup from that which Henry Hull wore in this movie. But this was Universal's very first werewolf movie! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that first release 1935 movie paper from this classic first Universal werewolf movie is beyond scarce, and the posters from it sell for tens of thousands of dollars! We previously auctioned two other examples of this great card, which shows Henry Hull in full makeup as the werewolf (and note how different this werewolf makeup is from Lon Chaney's "wolf man" makeup from his 1940s Universal movies), and they sold for $2,005 and $1,642. We also auctioned two different scenes that did not show Hull in werewolf makeup, and those sold for $1,509 and $700. Other than the above four cards, we have never sold any other first release lobby cards! We are also currently auctioning a 1951 Realart re-release title card in a separate auction. Also 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. The card has tiny pinholes in the corners and some faint smudges and creases around the edges, with a diagonal crease in the top right corner. It has a faint horizontal scuff mark across the upper center of the image and a faint vertical scuff in the bottom center of the image, extending into the second "E" of "WEREWOLF". Otherwise, the card is in nice condition. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back! Learn More about condition grades
