Note the background spider web (similar to the use of it on posters and lobby cards for the original Dracula with Bela Lugosi) to accentuate El Vampiro's blood-sucking trap of doom. Interestingly, the picture here is an actual photograph that's glued to the lobby card, which is one of the reasons I picked this up. The tilt of the photograph, the emanating spider web, and the vampire as pivotal point the rest of the illustration flows from, gives this card's layout a more sophisticated execution.
