Description

Bela Lugosi Big Horror & Magic Stage Show (Capitol Theatre, Trenton, NY, 1950). Jumbo Window Card (22" X 28").
A fascinating piece of film history. Bela Lugosi put together a planned seventeen theatre tour with a "magic stage show" and showings of The Ape Man (Monogram, 1943) which had just been retitled and re-released by Favorite Films under the title They Creep in the Dark (Favorite Films, R-1949). Lugosi took ill and the Trenton, NJ, appearance for this jumbo window card was canceled. He did appear in Yonkers on 28 Dec 1950, and in New Rochelle on 29 Dec. Most of the other bookings were canceled, due to his health. There are pinpoint stains in the image and left edge, small tears at the bottom, and corner creases at the bottom. Fine/Very Fine.
