Movie Lobby Cards � All the Action!

As a collector of vintage racing automobilia, I�m always looking for something that relates to racing history, but also something that is visually interesting.

Old racing movie lobby cards fit the (play)bill to a T.

Just like movie trailers, they don�t indicate whether the movie is good or not, but they can still stir up the senses.

The movie theatres always received a movie promo-package that usually included posters and sets of 8 different 14�x 11� lobby cards.

As a collectible, lobby cards are very practical, being always less expensive than the poster, and less expensive to frame. You also don�t need huge walls to display them.

They are a great way to capture the �Screaming Excitement� on a small budget!
