  A beautiful and incredibly rare, complete set of eight (8), British front of house lobby cards for one of Hammer’s best – Roy Ward Baker’s 1967 supernatural alien invasion thriller “Quatermass and the Pit”. All eight cards feature Hammer regular Andrew Keir as Professor Bernard Quatermass in a variety of key scenes from the film. Flat and unfolded (as issued) with strong vibrant colours this totally original unrestored set of lobby cards, from first year of release 1967 present superbly and are a very rare example of country of origin Hammer Horror memorabilia from one of their finest and most respected productions…“You realise what you are implying? That we owe our human condition here to the intervention of insects”

  Trivia: When Dr. Quatermass is picking at the eyeball of the dead Martian creature in his laboratory, the pupils of the compound eye are a rectangular slot shape rather then round like a human eye. This is reminiscent of a goat’s eye, a creature that, for centuries, has been associated with witchcraft and sorcery.
