An egregious error in the movie "Dracula"


I watched the original 1931 Bela Lugosi "Dracula" movie last night, with commentary by a film historian who commented on a gross error.

In the screencap above, there is a ragged piece of cardboard placed between the bedside lamp and the bed. It was placed there by a lighting technician for one scene, then not removed, and is visible in three different scenes in the movie.

I've seen the movie three or four times, and this was the first time I had noticed this. It's blatantly obvious when it is pointed out.
