What sex is the half-man, half-woman? Can the Pinheads think? Can a full-grown woman truly love a midget?"; "Freaks makes these strange creatures as human as you!"; "An unusual love drama"; with actual circus sideshow human oddities!) starring Wallace Ford, Leila Hyams, Olga Baclanova (as Cleopatra, who turns into the Chicken Woman at the end of the movie!), Roscoe Ates, Henry Victor (as Hercules), Harry Earles (as Hans), Daisy Earles (as Frieda), Rose Dione, Daisy Hilton & Violet Hilton (the Siamese Twins), Schlitze (as himself), Josephine Joseph (as the Half Woman/Half Man), Johnny Eck (as the Half Boy), Frances O'Connor (as an Armless Girl), Peter Robinson (as the Human Skeleton), Olga Roderick (as the Bearded Lady), Koo Koo (the "Bird Girl", as herself), Prince Randian (billed as "Rardion"; as The Living Torso), Martha Morris (as an Armless Girl), Elvira Snow (as a Pinhead), Jenny Lee Snow (as a Pinhead), Elizabeth Green (as a Bird Girl), Angelo Rossitto (one of the most successful "little people" actors from the 1920s on), Edward Brophy, Matt McHugh, and John Aasen (as the Giant).

Important Added Info: Note that each of the original Freaks lobby cards sell for thousands of dollars, and yet they barely show any of the "freaks" (likely because MGM was afraid to do so, fearful of the public's reaction!). However, most of the 1949 re-release cards and posters show prominent images of the "freaks"! Also note that this auction also includes the printed brown bag this item originally came with! Note that these lobby cards were "authenticated" and "graded" by CGC, the famous authenticator of comic books. They gave each a grade of "9.8", and encased each in a mylar sleeve, with an informative strip one on border. Condition: fine. Each of the cards is in excellent condition (as certified by CGC, and by us!). In addition, you get the original brown bag that the eight cards originally came in. One could not ask for a nicer condition set! Learn More about condition grades
