Date Sold 6/8/2017Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 7 Undated (probably 1990s) Re-Release Theatrical Mexican Movie Lobby Cards (LCs; measure 13" x 17" [33 x 43 cm]) (Learn More) The Bride of Frankenstein, the classic 1935 James Whale Universal monster horror thriller sequel ("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. Clive, O.P. Heggie, John Carradine, Dwight Frye (as Karl), Gavin Gordon, and Neil Fitzgerald NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that these are NOT regular Mexican lobby cards. They are printed on a different paper stock and are generally in much better condition and much "newer" looking than regular Mexican lobby cards (and the inset images on each card is almost always a great scene!). The ones that have surfaced are also all from "better" movies (many classic movies), and there are only five cards or seven cards in each set. Therefore, we believe that they were almost surely created in the 1990s or after, and likely were sold directly to non-collectors (similar to Portal Publications commercial reprints in the U.S.). However, it is also possible that they were used when these classic movies were shown in theaters, but almost surely in the 1990s or after. DO NOT BID ON THESE THINKING THEY ARE FROM WHEN THE MOVIES CAME OUT! Also note that these Mexican lobby cards measure 13" x 17" [33 x 43 cm]. Condition: very good to fine.
