Lee Universal monster horror thriller ("Mysterious! Weird! Horrifying!"; "The greatest fear figures in screen history... all in Universal's NEW cavalcade of horror!"; the third Universal "Frankenstein" movie) starring Basil Rathbone (in the title role as the original Dr. Frankenstein's son), Boris Karloff ( in the title role as the Frankenstein monster), Bela Lugosi (as Ygor), Lionel Atwill, Josephine Hutchinson, and Donnie Dunagan (as Peter von Frankenstein) AND The Bride of Frankenstein, the classic 1935 James Whale Universal monster horror thriller ("The Monster Demands a Mate!"; "The monster thriller"; "Who will be The Bride of Frankenstein. Who will dare?"; the second of the Universal Frankenstein movies, and the only example I am aware of where a sequel is clearly superior to the original movie!; this is James Whale's masterpiece, and almost everyone agrees it is among the finest movies ever made, regardless of genre) starring Boris Karloff (as the Frankenstein monster), Colin Clive (as Dr. Henry Frankenstein), Valerie Hobson (as the bride of Dr. Frankenstein), Elsa Lanchester (in the title role as the bride of the Frankenstein monster, and also as Mary Shelley!), Una O'Connor, Ernest Thesiger (as Dr. Pretorius), E.E.

Important Added Info: Note that this scene is on a first release 1935 Bride of Frankenstein lobby card, and it is THE scene card to get from that set. This re-release card can surely be had for a fraction of the cost of that first release card, and it makes a great alternative to that card! We have only previously auctioned two examples of this card, and only one in the last 17 years (one sold for $1,605 and the other sold for $1,213). 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 to fine. Note that this card was never used by a theater that solely showed one of the two movies, so neither of the titles had been sniped over or painted over, which is a BIG PLUS, because many cards from this double bill have one title covered over (or formerly covered over). The card has really minor border wear. Someone wrote a light "7.50" in the top right corner in pencil. 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
