Auction History Result 5t040 AFRICAN HOLIDAY 8 LCs '37 jungle animals and the obligatory nude native women! Date Sold 2/6/2014 Sold 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) African Holiday, the 1937 Harry C. Pearson Africa safari hunting expedition documentary ("Photographed in Africa by Mr. and Mrs. Harry C. Pearson") narrated by Harry C. Pearson. The Pearsons were a married couple who got the idea to take a massive trip all over the African continent, and to film their travels. When they returned after seven months in Africa (having traveled over 5,000 miles and covering almost the entire continent), they assembled their footage into this documentary! During their travels, they saw pygmies and Latukas (who averaged over seven feet tall!), and many very rare animals. We don't know what else this remarkable couple accomplished in their lifetime, because we could not find other information about them, but it appears that this is their only movie, so they are not like the other famous married couples that made African movies (like Armand Denis and his two wives, and Martin Johnson and his wife Osa). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Important Added Info: Note that some of these cards contain nudity, so we have placed a white bar over those areas for those who are bothered by such images. Of course, the actual cards do not have the white bars! Condition: very good to fine. Two cards have tape on the front or back of the left edge (not put there for any restoration purpose) but otherwise they are in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
