The oriental sensation - now gives America the action its been waiting for!"; "No evil on earth could survive the fury that was Bruce Lee!") starring Bruce Lee ("every limb of his body is a lethal weapon"), Maria Yi, Han Ying Chieh, Tony Liu, and Malalene. Note that this movie (and "The Chinese Connection") received very limited release in the United States until after the success of "Enter the Dragon", at which point both movies received wide U.S. releases. Also, note that Australia distributed this movie as "The Chinese Connection", and released Lee's next movie (Jing Wu Men) as "Fist of Fury", which further complicates things! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that these lobby cards measure 10 1/2" x 13" [27 x 33 cm]. Also note that these Swiss lobby cards were made by the distributor creating a set of identical stiff board printed backings with printed information about the movie, with a blank space for a still, and then they would attach a number of stills to those boards, thus creating a set of Swiss lobby cards. Note that the board has metal grommets inserted into each corner, to make displaying of these Swiss lobby cards far easier.
UPDATED 04/20/2016: Note that we initially believed that these were Hong Kong lobby cards. However, after the auction closed, we learned that they are Swiss lobby cards, and we have updated the auction. We also contacted the winning bidder about the change, and they have elected to keep the cards. Condition: good to very good. There are some scuff marks scattered throughout and there are some pin holes around the edges. The cards are otherwise in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
