An Original Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Devil Bat's Daughter, the 1946 Frank Wisbar crime murder mystery psychiatry thriller sequel ("Blood Red Lips... Hungry for love..."; "But cursed by the brand of the vampires!"; "Giant devil bats... To bring death and the curse of the vampires!"; "By Night... A screeching devil bat... By Day... A beautiful girl... But Always... A blood-thirsty vampire!"; "Out of the darkness... Came talons of death!"; "Giant devil bats... To bring death and the curse of vampires!"; "Original Story by Frank Wisbar and Ernst Jaeger"; about a psychiatrist who uses hypnosis to convince his pretty young patient that she has killed his wife, when he actually did!) starring Rosemary La Planche (in the title role; she had been Miss California in 1940, and this was intended to be her break-out role, but she did not have a lot of success after this), John James, Michael Hale, Molly Lamont, Nolan Leary, Monica Mars, Edward Cassidy, and Eddie Kane. Note that this was a sequel to the 1940 movie "The Devil Bat" starring Bela Lugosi in name only. The title character in this movie is the daughter of Lugosi's character, which is intended to help explain why she thinks she committed a murder she did not commit (more likely, the connection was solely to help at the box office, and the title certainly made people expect they would be seeing a horror monster movie, which they did not, but the movie did have really cool Salvador Dali-like dream sequences!).

Important Added Info: 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. Also note that this lobby card has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the lobby card was backed onto a very light paper backing (acid-free), that keeps the "feel" of the lobby card similar to that of the original lobby card. Some restorers prefer to paperback lobby cards on to a heavy backing, while others prefer to use a very lightweight backing. The advantage of a lightweight backing is that the card still "feels" like a regular lobby card, but a heavier backing makes restoration easier to do and less noticeable. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. Prior to paperbacking, the card had pinholes and tiny stains in the solid background area to the right of the man's hands at lower left, with some minor border defects and some faint smudges and stains scattered in the card. Overall, the lobby card was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The card was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
