A lobby card is an 11x14 or 8x10 inch (usually horizontaly, is landscape, orientated) photo ("poster") printed on heavy stock featuring a scene from the film advertised. Studios stopped producing lobby card sets for the American market sometime in the mid-1980's. After the mid-1980's, the only US lobby card sets produced were for International releases. A lot of other, usually smaller, sizes and types of lobby card sets were and are also being used as many foreign countries still produce their own movie lobby cards and posters for films, with sometimes very different often even superior art, and printed in smaller numbers.
