Original color studio lobby card for LOLITA
by [Nabokov, Vladimir]
- Used
[ Culver City]: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer/7 Arts, 1962. Original 11 x 14" color lobby card (#7 from the set). Large P. de Quebec censor's stamp in lower right corner, patch of surface abrasion on blank verso, otherwise very good, if not somewhat better. A highly characteristic scene from Stanley Kubrick and James B. Harris's adaptation to the screen of Nabokov's novel. In this particular image, Sue Lyon casually plays with a hula-hoop, while a seated James Mason, in lounge robe, stares longingly over the top edge of a book he feigns reading.

Some minor spots of red offsetting to lower edge of upper wrapper, otherwise very near fine. An unspecified but substantially preproduction draft of Hecht's adaptation of Hemingway's novel of the Great War. It was the novel's second screen adaptation to reach production.
