The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari - Lobby Cards
Here are several Lobby Cards from the 1921 American release by Goldwyn of the German film The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920), starring Werner Krauss and Conrad Veidt. Lobby Cards were 11" x 14" posters that came in sets of 8. As the name implies, they were most often displayed in movie theater lobbies, to advertise current or coming attractions.
