eMoviePoster.comAuction History Result 6c069 BELOW THE SAHARA 8 LCs 1953 great giant African ape border art stolen from Mighty Joe Young! Date Sold 5/16/2019Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 8 Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Cards (LCs; measure 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Below the Sahara, the 1953 Armand Denis African desert expedition safari jungle adventure documentary ("SEE... Leopard attack on man! Baby-snatching gorillas! Battle of giant elephants! Cheetahs trained to hunt! Hippo bulls in combat! The ostrich rodeo! Penguin Playground! And plenty more!") narrated by Armand Denis. Note that Armand Denis had explored Africa and India in the 1930s with his wife Leila Roosevelt, and had produced and directed many short subjects with footage of their travels that he and his wife had shot themselves. In 1948, the 52 year-old Armand Denis divorced Roosevelt, and married 34 year-old Michaela Holdsworth, and together they made four movies (very similar to those he had made with his first wife). Important Added Info: Note that it may just be my imagination, but it sure looks like the artist of the border art was greatly influenced by the image of "Mighty Joe Young" on the 1949 posters from that classic movie! 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. Condition: good to very good. Cards #1 and #4 have paint on the back (they were used as a sign). Please see our super-sized images to get a good sense of the condition of these items prior to placing a bid.
