Auction History Result 5g333 LOST JUNGLE 8 LCs '34 World's Greatest Animal Trainer Clyde Beatty, young Mickey Rooney! Date Sold 2/19/2015 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 8 Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Cards (LCs; measure 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The Lost Jungle, the 1934 Armand Schaefer & David Howard (billed as "Dave Howard") safari action adventure serial ("The greatest aggregation of wild beasts ever assembled for a motion picture"; "A Mascot Super-Serial") starring Clyde Beatty ("World's Greatest Animal Trainer"), ("and an all-star cast") Cecilia Parker, Mickey Rooney, Syd Saylor, Warner Richmond, Edward LeSaint, Hal Taliaferro, Sammy the Killer Lion, and the Hagenbeck-Wallace wild animals! Note that Mascot did something REALLY unusual with this serial! In addition to the regular 12 chapter version, they also released a second version where the first chapter was seven reels long, and that was followed by ten regular chapters. They told theaters that they could release this second version as a serial with a feature length first chapter, or they could simply show the seven reel first chapter as a feature on its own, because it was designed to work as a stand-alone movie (and it contained footage not seen in the regular twelve chapter serial version). Also note that there is something really cool about this movie! Mickey Rooney, who was 13 years old, played a juvenile in this, and Cecilia Parker, who was 20, played the "love interest". Just three years later, they would be cast as Andy Hardy and Marion Hardy, brother and sister, in the greatest series of "family" movies ever, the Andy Hardy movies! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that Mickey Rooney is credited on the title card, and he prominently appears on one of the scenes (he is stopping Clyde Beatty from taking his dog)! Also note that these lobby cards are from the feature version that was created by editing all of the chapters of the serial down into one feature-length film (this was done with many serials of the 1930s). The studio printed different paper for the serial version and the feature version, including different sets of lobby cards. Condition: very good to fine. The title card has slightly darkened around the edges. Otherwise, the cards are in wonderful condition! None of the cards have had any sort of restoration. See our super-sized images to get a good sense of the exact condition of the cards. Learn More about condition grades
