Important Added Info: Note that while Universal horror lobby cards from their top 1930s movies are extremely expensive, the lobby cards from the three Warner Bros. early 1930s horror movies, The Mystery of the Wax Museum, Dr. X, and The Walking Dead, are FAR more rare than the Universal lobby cards, and yet they often sell for far less! We are extremely fortunate to be offering four different scene cards from The Mystery of the Wax museum (in four separate auctions). In all our previous years of auctioning, we have only auctioned one lobby card from this movie.
UPDATED 11/02/2015: Note that we have made an update to the Auction Title. Condition: very good to fine. The card has very tiny tears and creases in the middle of the right border and a couple of incredibly tiny tears in the bottom border, with the faintest of smudges around the edges. Otherwise, the card is in wonderful condition. Note that this lobby card is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
