Description

The Mystery of the Wax Museum (Warner Brothers, 1933). Title Lobby Card (11" X 14"). Lionel Atwill gave one of his greatest performances as Ivan Igor, a wax sculptor who uses real people as the foundation for the wax figures he is creating. Warner Brothers decided to get in on the horror genre that was proving so successful at Universal, and with "Wax Museum" they created one of the true masterpieces of the era. Fay Wray would star in "King Kong" the same year and be the first "scream queen" of the talkie era. This title card is very scarce and has approximately two pinholes per corner. Two of the pinholes are in the light blue background in the upper left corner. Very Fine.
