Auction History Result 2a175 BELA LUGOSI 8.25x10 still 1948 portrait when he made Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein! Date Sold 11/12/2017 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Bela Lugosi was one of the top two horror actors from the 1930s (along with Boris Karloff) in movies such as Dracula, Island of Lost Souls, The Wolf Man, The Body Snatcher, and the Black Cat. His portrayal of Dracula was so memorable, that it caused movie makers to only want him to play similar roles, and in the minds of many horror fans, there is no other Dracula BUT Bela Lugosi! Note that Mr. Lugosi was born in what was then Austria-Hungary, but is now Romania. He passed away in 1956 at the age of 73. Important Added Info: Note that this great portrait still is dated 1948 from Universal Pictures on the front, which was the year he made Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (the only movie he made that year). It has interesting stamps on the back. It has one from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Hollywood - California (we don't recall ever seeing this specific stamp before). It also has a stamp from the "Players Directory", with room for the star's name and their agent below it, and we are not sure how those two stamps got on the back of this Universal still, and exactly why. There is also a sticker from a long ago owner of the still on the back as well. Also note that this still measures 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm]. Condition: very good to fine. There are a few faint tiny creases around the edges, but they are mostly only noticeable when the still is tilted to the light, and the still is otherwise in nice condition!
