A 1964 Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Italian Photobusta Movie Poster (lrg pbusta; measures 26 3/4" x 36 3/4" [68 x 93 cm]) (Learn More) Forbidden Planet, the classic 1956 Fred McLeod Wilcox science fiction (sci-fi) outer space robot monster thriller ("Amazing!"; "In Cinemascope and Color"; "Based on the story by Irving Block & Allen Adler"; very loosely adapted from William Shakespeare's "The Tempest"; about space men who journey to a distant planet, and they find that all the members of the original expedition have died, except for one man and his daughter, and they have discovered the secrets of a long lost civilization called "The Krell", which dwarfs anything humans have ever discovered, but there is a very dark side to those secrets that is soon revealed) starring Walter Pidgeon, Anne Francis, Leslie Nielsen, Warren Stevens, Jack Kelly, Richard Anderson, Earl Holliman (as the cook, who was put in the movie for comic relief), Robby the Robot (billed as "Introducing Robby the Robot"), James Drury, and Frankie Darro (who was inside the robot suit until he was fired early in the production for showing up inebriated and almost damaging the expensive prop). Note that after Robby the Robot appeared in this movie, he had another movie role in "The Invisible Boy", and then he appeared in a slightly modified version as the robot in TV's "Lost in Space". On November 21, 2017, the original "Robby the Robot" was auctioned, and it sold for $5.375 million! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair. The poster was folded across the middle and it had tiny paper loss scattered along that fold and around the edges. Unfortunately, the poster had significant damage in Anne Francis' face at bottom center (perhaps a snipe was glued there), and there was a triangle of paper loss in the right border across from that area. Overall, the poster was in fair condition prior to linenbacking. The person who backed the poster did pretty amateurish restoration to Francis' face and it is quite noticeable, so please read our description above and look at our super-sized image before placing a bid on this poster.
