Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein, 1948
Original lobby card movie poster
Starring Bela Lugosi, Lon Chaney and Glenn Strange

This has been our favorite A&C Meet Frankenstein lobby card of all time. In the last 30 years of collecting A&C Memorabilia this is only the second we have acquired. The last one was about two years ago, which sold relatively fast. This particular lobby card is a real beauty and fantastic scene with Lon Chaney as the Wolf Man sizing up his prey Lou Costello.

Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (Universal International, 1948). Lobby Card (11" X 14"). Although Lou Costello found the script insulting and Universal execs had to be shamed into using Lugosi for Dracula (they wanted Ian Keith, for some strange reason), what finally emerged is one of the best horror comedies ever filmed, and certainly one of the greatest in the Abbott & Costello series. Bud and Lou meet Dracula, the Wolfman, and the Frankenstein creature in this raucous monster mash directed by Charles Barton, who helmed all of the best A&C movies. There are no bad cards in the A&C M.F. lobby set, but this is certainly one of our very favorites, as Lou narrowly escapes the razor-sharp talons of the Wolfman. Very good-excellent condition with just some border wear. Had some pinholes in upper corner borders which have been filled in. Note: If you have never read the Wiki page about the history behind "Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein", you're missing a real treat!
An incredible piece of Hollywood history.
