This item:    An original rare release  UK Front of House / Lobby card for this most famous, and best, Jack the Ripper movie. This card shows Sara Allgood as Mrs Bonting with the Lodger, Laird Cregor as Mr Slade / Jack the Ripper - this is a stunner being a key moment of the movie as Cregar speaks of his beloved brother (his motive for the killings) and how his life was prematurily ended by his association with certain women.  UK cards are much rarer than their US counterparts and are printed on thinner paper stock (war limitations). At the time of listing no large internet auction site, nor UK dealer had any of these cards on offer.   Rare

Stars:             Merle Oberon, George Sander, Laird Cregar, Sir Cedric Hardwick, Sara Allgood, Aubrey Mather.

Size:             8.00 x 10.00 inches approx. 

Condition: (Range from Fine – Very Good – Good – Poor with ++ to - - for further differentiation) : Very Good ++ -:    light side white border corner pin-holes;  good corners and edges with slight wear; overall, very good. (see photos for further detail; feel free to ask for specific detail.) 

POST & PACKAGING: all items are securely packaged, for as a collector myself I appreciated the need for secure packaging and all materials used are new. Posting / shipping depends on the item value and under £10.00 1st class post will be used; for items over this amount a tracked system will be used for both UK and international postings / shipping.
