Date Sold 10/25/2016Sold 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 Return of the Vampire, the 1943 Lew Landers werewolf vampire monster horror thriller ("Beauty at the mercy of a Monster!"; "Man? Or Monster? Or Both?"; "Terrifying! Paralyzing! Horrifying!"; about an English family who thought they rid themselves of a vampire, but during World War II, German bombs free the monster; it reclaims the soul of its former wolfman servant and plots to take revenge on the family) starring Bela Lugosi (in the title role as the Vampire), Frieda Inescort, Miles Mander, Matt Willis (as the werewolf), and Nina Foch. Note that Columbia would have loved to refer to Bela Lugosi's character as "Dracula", but Universal owned the rights to the character, so they could only refer to him as "the vampire", and he was named "Armand Tesla" (and Matt Willis plays Tesla's werewolf servant!). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. Condition: fair. Unfortunately, this great card has surface paper loss below Lugosi's eye and in the forehead of the girl (see our image). There is also a tiny bit in her neck. There are pinholes in the corners that were repaired with tape from the back and restoration on the front, so obviously, the surface paper loss occurred after that restoration was performed (and certainly, any talented restorer could perform restoration to the above defects, either with or without backing the card). But please do not bid on this card unless you can accept its defects described above or are willing to pay to have them properly restored. Learn More about condition grades
