An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14") (Learn More) Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (released in other English-speaking countries as "Abbott and Costello Meet the Ghosts"), the 1948 Charles T. Barton monster horror spoof comedy ("It's a grand New idea for Fun!"; the eighth Universal Frankenstein movie, and this time they added their #1 comedy team to both liven up the series, and to inject comedy; many people fondly remember this as their favorite of the 1940s Frankenstein movies!; "Jeepers! The Creepers are after Bud and Lou!"; "The laughs are MONSTERous! Bud and Lou are in a stew when they tangle with the Titans of Terror!"; "The monsters of menace vs the masters of Mirth!") starring Bud Abbott, Lou Costello (Abbott and Costello), Lon Chaney Jr. ("The Wolf Man played by Lon Chaney"), Bela Lugosi (returning as Dracula after being long absent from the role; "Dracula played by Bela Lugosi"), Glenn Strange (in the title role, playing the Frankenstein monster; "The Monster played by Glenn Strange"), Lenore Aubert, Jane Randolph, Frank Ferguson, Charles Bradstreet, and Vincent Price (in a cute cameo, as the voice of The Invisible Man at the end of the movie!) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that the back of this card shows that it passed through the hands of at least two very well known horror collectors! There is a small stamp that says "Property of L. Elig" and another stamp that says "From The Collection Of Edward and Carolyn Plumb". Condition: good to very good. The card had some faint stains in the top right of Frankenstein's shirt, extending into the background next to it, and someone performed slight restoration to that area, and also to the center of the top and bottom of the card, where there was likely once a piece of tape in each area. The card has a pinhole in the center of the top of the image. There are some faint smudges and tiny creases around the edges. The card had the above restoration, but it appears that none whatsoever was done in the rest of the card, and the card displays great, and I would think most collectors would be very happy to display it on their wall!
