What, you're thinking? Did Carole Lombard secretly make another horror film along the lines of 1933's "Supernatural" (shown above)?

Each are regulation postcard size with signatures printed onto the card. The top sells for $25, the bottom for $12, though you can make an offer on either.
Two other postcards team Carole with co-stars and are in artist-rendered color. First, Lombard and George Raft at Paramount...
...then, Carole with Cary Grant at RKO:
Each are $16 or make a best offer.

Finally, some personal news that's anything but scary: This week, my comedy screenplay "Stand Tall!" is an official selection of the LA Live Film Fest. As part of it, my promotional one-sheet received the festival's seal of approval, and another version created with additional info on the script. Here's what each of them looks like:
The festival takes place Nov. 10 at the Regal Cinemas LA Live 14, near the Grammy Museum.
