An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The Most Dangerous Game (released in England as "Hounds of Zaroff"), the 1932 Irving Pichel & Ernest B. Schoedsack mystery adventure horror thriller ("Fascinating, strange and terrible is the story of Zaroff, who hunted men like animals for a sporting thrill"; '"The finest specimens I ever killed"'; produced by Merian C. Cooper; based on the story 'The Most Dangerous Game' by Richard Connell, one of many movies based on this classic story!) starring Joel McCrea, Fay Wray, Leslie Banks (as Zaroff), Robert Armstrong, and Noble Johnson. Note that this movie was filmed simultaneously with "King Kong", so many of the actors, sets, and sound effects from King Kong were used in this movie! Also note that Leslie Banks was a distinguished English stage actor who made his first movie appearance in this most unusual movie (the IMDb claims he was in a 1921 movie, but we don't know that that is accurate, and he surely did not have a leading role)! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that original 1932 release material from this movie is INCREDIBLY scarce! We really don't know why that is, although of course almost all 1932 release items are somewhat scarce. Over the past 20 years, we have auctioned two original glass slides and a pressbook, but never any first release posters at all, and this only the second 1932 lobby card we have ever auctioned! 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. The card has tiny pinholes and some faint smudges in the borders. It once had brown paper tape on the back of parts of several borders, and some of it was removed (see our images). There is a 1/2" tear in the right of the top blank border. Other than the above border defects, the card is in pretty nice condition and will display great just as it is (or certainly, restoration could be performed). Learn More about condition grades
