The Strangest Story You Ever Tried To Get Out Of Your Dreams!"; "Pretty Girl - Black Beast - They're One!"; "Written by DeWitt Bodeen"; produced by Val Lewton) starring Simone Simon, Kent Smith, Tom Conway, Jane Randolph, Jack Holt, and Mary Halsey. Note that when this movie was first announced by RKO Pictures in 1942, it was called "The Cat People" in the first trade ads, but it was released simply as "Cat People". NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that any posters from the first release of this classic movie are extremely rare and expensive. Perhaps that was because there was a re-release which was made just ten years after the original, and probably whatever original 1942 paper was still around in 1952 was used up during that re-release, which would help explain why so little original 1942 movie paper still survives! Condition: good to very good. There are tiny staple holes in the middle of the left and right borders, and a pair of staple holes and a 1/2" tear in the center of the bottom border. There are some dots of blue paint in the upper right of the image, in the rigging of the model ship (see our image). The blue paint came from someone who painted the title of a movie on the back of the card in blue and red paint. It covers a lot of the back of the card, but fortunately, it has no effect on the front, except for the small bit of paint described above. 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
