Original Universal Pictures Title Lobby Card (11x14) 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 title lobby card is in very fine plus condition with only a few minor bends and creases and a light dust shadow in the top border. Art by Reynold Brown.
