Date Sold 11/30/2014Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. a lot of 24 MGM international lobby cards. Note that the items in this lot are from the 1950s to the 1960s. Note that these lobby cards were printed in the U.S. for use in non-U.S. countries. Somewhere in the early 1960s, MGM apparently made a huge "trade" deal with European movie distributors. From the early 1960s to the late 1960s, MGM released 100 or more non-U.S. movies in the U.S. under the MGM logo (some dating back to the 1950s), and in return, they apparently gave 100 or more MGM movies (from the 1950s and early 1960s) to those European distributors to release in Europe. All of the posters and lobby cards from both sets of releases have a very similar type of somewhat garish, very colorful artwork, and most have an MGM logo that is different from that on other MGM movies of the same time period. None of these posters or lobby cards (except for the very first few of them) have any dates on them. Over the years, I have seen many of these posters (from both types) sold as first release, but I believe that they are all mid to late 1960s re-releases, and that the ones from U.S. movies are "international" posters and lobby cards. This particular lobby card set is one of the movies that MGM sent for European release (and this is one of the movies that IS an MGM movie). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. We do not provide a list of these items, but there are images of all of them. Condition: good to very good. Some of the lobby cards are in "good" condition, some in "good to very good", and some "very good". Learn More about condition grades Titles included:
