200603211949 Steve Worth, curator of that bottomless cornucopia of stunning mid-century art and illustration, the ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive Project Blog, says: "I just posted a fun batch of scifi, horror and adventure related Mexican lobby cards from the late 50s and early 60s. I'm asking the readers to analyze the images and suggest visual techniques the artists use to try to entice moviegoers to buy a ticket. Fun stuff!"
