An Original Vintage Theatrical Autographed Movie Lobby Card #4 (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Jules Verne's Rocket to the Moon (released in the U.S. as "Those Fantastic Flying Fools" and also as "Blast-Off"), the 1967 Don Sharp English fantasy ballooning adventure comedy ("The most fabulous entertainment event of the year!"; "Original story by Peter Welbeck") starring Burl Ives ("as P.T. Barnum - out to take the 'Sucker born every minute'"), Troy Donahue ("A fall guy shouldn't go up in a balloon - but he did."), Gert Froebe ("Inventor of the BANG heard 'round the world"), Lionel Jeffries ("Single-handed he set science back 100 years."), Daliah Lavi ("She lived for love and how she loved it, with a one track mind and two fiancees."), and Terry-Thomas ("He wears an 'old-school-tie' he got shoplifting!") NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card has been personally autographed (signed) by Troy Donahue! Note that the posters and lobby cards for the release of this movie under the title "Blast-Off" say "...formerly 'THOSE FANTASTIC FLYING FOOLS'" directly under the title. Yet, both these posters (or lobby cards) and those with the original title are from 1967, and both have the same NSS number, making this either a same-year re-release, or a simultaneous second release (which may have occurred when they changed the title just as it was being released). If anyone knows more about this odd situation, please e-mail us and we will post it here. 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. Note that our consignor purchased a collection of autographed lobby cards that were collected by Leonard Sorgi, who was a unit manager for ABC for shows like The Soupy Sales Show, The Jerry Mahoney Show, and many others. He was also Unit Manager for the Academy Awards for a number of years, and during his long and varied career, he met many celebrities and obtained autographs from them in person (often personalized to him). In the past, we have auctioned many signed stills from Mr. Sorgi's amazing collection, and just a few lobby cards, but in this set of auctions, we are auctioning 156 signed lobby cards, all at one time (we are also auctioning some more signed stills from the same collection)! Our consignor (and we) feel certain that the autograph on this card is authentic! This is a wonderful opportunity to purchase many great signed lobby cards. Condition: very good. 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
