Auction History Result 6w500 TERROR OF TINY TOWN LC 1938 Jed Buell's Midgets in elaborate cowboy wedding, ultra rare! Date Sold 6/13/2019 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The Terror of Tiny Town, the bizarre cult classic 1938 Sam Newfield musical cowboy western comedy ("These Tom Thumbs are colossal!"; "Half-pints in 10-gallon hats! First time on the screen!"; "Rip-snortin' all-midget action show! First time on any screen!"; "All-midget cast! First time on the screen! Fighting... singing... loving!") starring Jed Buell's Midgets, Billy Curtis, Yvonne Moray, 'Little Billy' Rhodes, Billy Platt, and John T. Bambury. Note that director Sam Newfield had the novel idea of filming a western where the entire cast was played by little people (Jed Buell's Midgets among others). It may not be among the greatest movies ever made, but it certainly is high on the list of the most unusual movies ever made! Also note that some of the cast members of this movie would have a far better role the following year, when they were cast as Munchkins in MGM's classic "The Wizard of Oz"! Important Added Info: Note that first release movie paper items from this bizarre movie are very rare! We have only sold a few lobby cards and never a one-sheet from the first release in all our years of auctioning. We know that there was a 1942 re-release and another 1947 re-release, and that may account for why 1938 first release items are so rare! Condition: good to very good. There is staining and surface paper loss in the top right corner where tape was roughly removed. There is a stain in the upper right blank border and tiny paper loss in the right of the bottom blank border, with slight darkening, creases, tiny tears, and a few pinholes around the edges (some repaired with clear tape from the back). The image area is in pretty nice condition (see our images). Learn More about condition grades
