This is an original Universal Pictures Scene Lobby Card (11×14) for the Jack Arnold sci-fi/horror classic, TARANTULA (1955) starring John Agar, Mara Corday, and Leo G. Carroll. This is the tale of a tarantula, which is injected with a special nutrient formula and then escapes from the scientist’s laboratory. It then grows into a 100-foot monster that attacks cattle as well as humans. It was one of the most popular of the “insect-gone-rampant” films of the 1950′s. There is even a small supporting role for the young Clint Eastwood as a jet squadron leader assigned to drop napalm on the spider to burn it to death. This original scene lobby card featuring Leo G. Carroll is pristine and in near mint condition.
