Description

Dracula's Daughter (Universal, 1936). Title Lobby Card (11" X 14"). With the huge success of Dracula (1931), the movie that made Bela Lugosi an overnight sensation, it's not surprising that Universal wanted a sequel. Eventually, they approached director James Whale, hot off his triumphs on both Frankenstein (1931) and Bride of Frankenstein (1935), to direct, but his proposed treatment was considered too outrageous, and he was dropped from the picture, replaced by Lambert Hillyer. The studio decided on a treatment that would focus on Marya Zeleska (Gloria Holden), the daughter of the Transylvanian Count, and her search to be cured from her strange compulsion to drink human blood. Offered here is the eerie title card for this Universal Horror favorite, featuring a chilling portrait of Holden in the upper left. The cards in this exceptional set are among the best vintage lobbies we've ever seen, absolutely dead mint with no visible flaws. For the serious poster collector, it truly doesn't get any better than this. Mint.
