Original 1931 Dracula Newspaper ad via ebay

[JohnWMorehead]

This item was formerly part of the personal research collection of David J. Skal, author of HOLLYWOOD GOTHIC and THE MONSTER SHOW.

Here, for a bargain price, is an original 1931 newspaper page from the Antigo, Wisconsin, Daily Journal with an attractive DRACULA ad featuring Lugosi. Can be framed very attractively. Page also contains a display ad for the film OUTWARD BOUND, in which DRACULA headliner Helen Chandler also co-starred. Quarter-folded page in protective mylar sleeve is in excellent condition with no tears, marks, or pinholes. Normal paper yellowing for an 82 year-old item.

Original print materials for Universal's 1931 DRACULA are among the most sought-after collector's treasures. Posters have been valued at hundreds of thousands of dollars, and lobby cards for tens of thousands. This is a special item for Bela Lugosi fans, horror fans, and Hollywood memorabilia collectors.
