"Lost in a Harem" , 1944
Two Original lobby cards (11x14")

A RARE collection of one of their earlier titles from 1944, "Lost in a Harem". Two nice lobby cards with the boys in all the scenes. These are the best of the set.

Price is for Both. Be sure to check out our Title Card and Insert we have for this classic title!

Beautiful vintage Lobby Cards for this popular A&C 1944 WWII era classic! Very good condition.

Lost In A Harem is one of the best Abbott & Costello films for 3 reasons: One, unlike most of their films in the 1940s which were produced at Universal Studios, this one was done at MGM with that studios usual higher production standards, including a few spectacular musical numbers. Two, it is one of only about a dozen filmed appearances of big band great Jimmmy Dorsey, who performs, with his band, a number called John Silver ("15 men on a dead man's chest") which I haven't found elsewhere, and a few other songs. Three, the "Pokomoko" routine ("Slowwwwly I turned, step by step I crept upon him . . .") is done to perfection by A&C with Murray Leonard as the Derelict, which I've always remembered as one of my favorite A&C routines . Furthermore, there's a real live giant (Lock Martin), full costumes and exotic sets as you would expect from MGM, a magic skit by A&C, hypnotism, a fine performance from Douglas Dumbrille as the bad guy, and more good music.
