An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Japanese "B2" Movie Poster (measures 20" x 28 1/2" [51 x 72 cm]) (Learn More) Flesh for Frankenstein (released in the U.S. in 1974 as "Andy Warhol's Frankenstein"), the 1973 Paul Morrissey French/Italian/U.S. 3-D (3D; 3-Dimension) monster horror thriller ("We dare you to see Andy Warhol's Flesh for Frankenstein"; "Prepare yourself for the most gruesome epic ever unleashed!"; very loosely based on the classic characters by Mary Shelley) starring Joe Dallesandro, Monique Van Vooren, Udo Kier (in the title role as Baron Frankenstein), Arno Juerging (billed as "introducing Arno Juerging"), Dalila Di Lazzaro (as the female monster), Srdjan Zelenovic (as the male monster), and Marco Liofredi 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: Note that this movie was originally not a 3-D movie, but was soon also released in a 3-D version. This poster is from the "3-D" release. Also note that this poster contains an unclothed woman, so we have placed a white bar over that area, for those who are bothered by such images. Of course, the actual poster does not have that white bar! What IS linenbacking? "Linenbacking" is a process that is used to preserve movie posters (the best restorers de-acidify the poster during the restoration process), and to make them far easier to display (it is much easier and less expensive to frame a linenbacked poster). When linenbacking is done correctly, it adds to the value of the poster, and is NOT a defect! Note that the specific poster in this auction was well linenbacked, but the restorer likely did not attempt to make the poster look "perfect". You may still see some slight evidence of the restoration and/or the defects when you look at the poster from inches away. But the poster now looks quite nice, and I think most collectors would be extremely happy to display this poster on their wall. In general, know that we received many of the linenbacked posters we are currently selling already linenbacked, but we have examined every poster EXTREMELY carefully, and we did our best to describe what condition the poster was in PRIOR to restoration, the defects the poster had PRIOR to restoration (in the "Pre-Restoration Defects & Quality of Restoration" section), any unrestored defects, and, when it seemed worth noting, something about the quality of the restoration itself. Many other auction houses claim to match what we do in this area, but EVERY person who regularly buys movie posters from major auctions can tell you this is just not the case! We never intentionally overgrade a single item, we never "accidentally" miss defects, and we never enhance a single image! Condition: very good to fine. The poster was never folded. There were some creases in the bottom center of the poster. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
