"Freaks", 1949
Original Vintage Movie Poster Lobby Card


You know the story behind this historical film.  This lobby card is from the 1949 release of this 1932 film, which was considered so abominable for the public to see it was banned in Great Britain. . . This 1949 re-issue lobby card is in excellent condition. The card features the "After" shot of Baclanova..   Excellent + condition.

The FIRST we have ever owned in 30 years of collecting.   Goes without saying this won't last long.

* We have been so fortunate to recently acquire the entire lobby card set of eight from this film.  See the others below under Also Recommended.

Freaks (Excelsior, R-1949). Lobby Card (11" X 14").
Tod Browning was one of Hollywood's most highly acclaimed directors when he made this shocking film which harkened back to his early years as a circus performer. The film, originally released in 1932, was considered so scandalous that MGM pulled it from release and it directly led to Browning's decline as a director. The film sat on a shelf until 1949 when distributor Dwain Esper secured the right and re-released it.

* Authenticity Guaranteed for Life
