An Undated (probably 1938) Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Tri-Folded Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81") (Learn More) The Monster Walks, the 1932 Frank R. Strayer haunted house monster horror thriller ("Appalling in its horror - gruesome in its details - terrifying in its action - see 'The Monster Walks' - another 'Frankenstein'"; "You need plenty of nerve when you see this picture"; "Don't see this picture - unless you have steady nerves - unless your heart is strong."; about a man and woman who go to the woman's family mansion, and discover that her scientist father died suddenly and that her crazy uncle and his even crazier son intend to kill her as well, no doubt so they could inherit the family mansion and wealth; at the climax of the movie, the crazy cousin has the girl tied up and he instructs his giant ape to kill her, but the ape turns on the uncle and cousin, and kills them instead!) starring Mischa Auer, Rex Lease, Vera Reynolds, Sheldon Lewis, and Willie Best. Note that we have seen a 1932 one-sheet for this movie that a collector who owns it was kind enough to share with us (see our AH image of it here: http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/archiveitem/8939889.html). So the 1932 posters ARE very similar to the 1938 Astor re-release posters, which we have sold. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: This three-sheet was printed in 3 sections. Note that this three-sheet poster was tri-folded only (which means there is one less vertical machine fold than usual). This means the poster has a significantly lesser number of folds than with three-sheets folded in the "regular" way, which is nice! Tri-folded three-sheets need to be sent in an oversized flat package, which measures roughly 13" x 30", so they cost more to send than regularly folded three-sheets, especially if they are sent to non-U.S. addresses. Condition: very good to fine. There are some creases and tiny tears in some borders and a very few in some foldlines. But otherwise, the poster appears to have never been used and is in quite nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
