The Thief of Bagdad, the classic 1940 Ludwig Berger, Michael Powell & Tim Whelan English Arabia Iraq romantic love triangle magic adventure fantasy thriller ("Thrill to the marvel picture of the year!"; "Three brave hearts... adventuring in a wonder world"; "Adventure of the masked men!"; "Adventure of the wonderful web!"; "Adventure of the all-seeing eye!"; "Never before such a screen thrill! ...two years to film, a fortune to produce... Alexander Korda's greatest achievement!"; "One thousand and one sights from the thousand of one nights...."; "Sir Alexander Korda's masterpiece of fantasy and adventure."; "Gigantic! The wonder picture of all time!"; "He fought the world to hold her loveliness within his daring arms!"; "The adventure of the masked magician!"; "The adventure of the all-seeing eye!"; "The adventure of the wonderful web!"; "In magic Technicolor!"; "produced in England and the U.S. by Alexander Korda with wondrous special effects by Lawrence W. Butler and Tom Howard, and great art direction by William Cameron Menzies") starring Conrad Veidt (memorable as Jaffar), Sabu Dastagir ("Sabu, famous star of screen hits 'Elephant Boy' and 'Drums' as the daring Thief of Baghdad... living, fighting, adventuring in a magic world!"; billed as "Sabu", as he was in all his movies; as Abu the thief, son of Abu the thief, grandson of Abu the thief, etc.!), June Duprez (as the princess), John Justin (as Ahmad), Rex Ingram (sensational as The Genie!), Mary Morris (as Halima, the animated statue!), Miles Malleson (as the Sultan of Basra), Morton Selten (as the old king), and Allan Jeayes (as the narrator). Note that this movie featured sensational "special effects" for its day, and had several wonderful sequences that looked like they required the building of massive sets, yet in most cases, matte paintings created the illusion of those massive sets!

Important Added Info:
NOTE: In this case, the #8 in the title of the sale is not the number of the lobby card. Because we are selling more than one lobby card from this movie this week as separate eBay sales, we needed to differentiate the different sales, and we did so by marking them "#1, #2, #3, etc..".

Condition: very good to fine. many tiny pinholes around the edges of the card, otherwise the card is in really excellent condition!
