Description

Dracula (Universal, R-1938). Lobby Card (11" X 14").
In 1930, Universal was a struggling studio, desperate for a hit. Taking a chance on an adaptation of a popular Broadway play, Carl Laemmle Jr. acquired the film rights to Bram Stoker's immortal novel about an aristocratic vampire, and brought Dracula to the silver screen in 1931. Not only was the film a sensation, but it made an overnight superstar of Bela Lugosi and ushered in the Golden Age of Universal Horror. This great scene featuring Hellen Chandler and Bela Lugosi shows pinholes in the upper border with one within the image and three in the lower right corner, one within the title box. There are pinholes in the left and right border, two each. There is an upper right corner bend within the border. There is a rubber stamp on the verso with no bleed through. There is no restoration on this card. Very Fine-.
