"Let's Do The Time Warp Again!"

The same, yet different.

Here's a surprisingly unusual scenario where the UK and corresponding USA lobby card sets both included a card depicting the same scene, but where the on-set photograph was not taken at the precise same time.

As such both cards are immediately very similar in appearance - and yet do look distinctly different at the same time! They are then further distanced due to the British front of house card (right) having a more vibrant colour finish, when viewed alongside the closely-matching American card (left).

Unfortunately at the present time (Summer, 2022) the Lobby Cards Gallery is only in possession of the single UK card discussed on this article. The complete USA set is, however available for fans to enjoy here:
