Also, biologist and nature photographer Carl Akeley denounced this film for misrepresenting Africa and for faking some scenes. Artist: McGinn Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned a three-sheet (which sold for $2,217) and a few lobby cards (15 and 16 years ago) from this movie until we received this lobby card, which has wonderful border art, and a main scene that is also wonderful art, showing a cameraman photographing a charging rhino! 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. There is a tiny pinhole in each right blank corner. Otherwise, the card is in really excellent 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
