An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 10" x 13" [25 x 33 cm]) (Learn More) The Leopard Man, the 1943 Jacques Tourneur wild-animal-on-the-loose murder mystery crime thriller ("Women alone the victims of strange, savage killer!"; "You'll gasp with amazement!"; "Thrill-Killer of Women and Girls!"; "You'll be astounded to learn that such things can happen!"; "Death striking from the dark with ripping fury!...Was it man or beast that tore to shreds victim after victim - striking only at defenseless beauty? ...Know the truth about these murders-for-a-thrill!"; "Produced by Val Lewton"; based on the novel 'Black Alibi' by Cornell Woolrich; as in "Cat People", Lewton and Tourneur did not have money for much make-up or special effects, so the posters for this movie promise much more than the film actually delivered in terms of a monster, but the movie works quite well on its own terms!) starring Dennis O'Keefe, Margo, Jean Brooks, Isabel Jewell, James Bell, Ben Bard, Abner Biberman, and Margaret Landry. A knowledgeable collector tells us that this may be the first film to use the desert of the American Southwest as a setting for a horror film. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this lobby card has been trimmed and it now measures 10" x 13" [25 x 33 cm]. Condition: fair to good. Someone trimmed off all of the blank borders (including the small writing in the bottom blank border), and they glued the card to a backing board, with glue down the back of the left and right borders. Any restorer (or talented amateur) could easily remove the card from the backing board, and any talented restorer could replace the missing borders if the new owner desired. In addition, there are staple holes around the edges and a few minor defects, and the trimming was not done exactly straight, so there is likely a tiny bit of the edges of the image that were trimmed. 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
