An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The Wasp Woman, the classic 1959 Roger Corman giant bug insect science fiction (sci-fi) thriller ("A beautiful woman by day - a lusting queen wasp by night!"; "See: Strong men forced to satisfy a passion no human knows!"; "See: A beautiful woman by day - a lusting queen wasp by night!"; "Written by Leo Gordon") starring Susan Cabot (in the title role as the wasp woman), Fred Eisley, Barboura Morris, William Roerick, and Michael Mark. Note that this movie was guilty of one of the most blatant cases of "false advertising" in an industry filled with unfulfilled promises! The posters and the title card for this movie shows a giant wasp with a woman's head, while the movie delivers a normal-sized woman with a really fake looking wasp head! Also, note that Susan Cabot had a very interesting life, as you can see by clicking on her biography link above. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: good. The card has darkened somewhat (more so on the back of the card). There is some faint water staining scattered in the bottom left and some pinholes in the top right corner. There is also a pair of staple holes in the upper left (in the wing) and four small holes (two enlarged) in the lower right background area. There are many creases and faint scuffs scattered in the card. While this card has never had any restoration (it does have a small piece of tape on the back of the four holes described above in the lower right), and it still displays pretty well just as it is, it is also true that this is the sort of card that responds really well to professional restoration. It is likely that much or all of the darkening and scattered creases can be removed through chemical means, and after proper paperbacking or starch backing, the card will look fantastic .
