Auction History Result 7x144 GIANT LEECHES linen 1sh '59 rising from the depths of Hell to kill and conquer, great art! Date Sold 6/7/2015 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) The Giant Leeches (also released as "Attack of the Giant Leeches", and released in England as "Demons of the Swamp"), the 1959 Bernard L. Kowalski AIP monster horror thriller ("Crawling horror... unleashed by the depths of hell to kill and conquer!"; "Crawling horror... rising from the depths of Hell... to kill and conquer!"; "Written by Leo Gordon") starring Ken Clark, Yvette Vickers, Jan Shepard, Michael Emmet, Dan White, and Tyler McVey. Note that the IMDb says that the title of this movie was "Attack of the Giant Leeches", but all of the first release U.S. posters simply say "The Giant Leeches". However, some first release U.S. stills have "Attack of the Giant Leeches" and a collector tells us that the movie itself shows that title on the copies he watched! 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: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some tiny bits of paper loss in the top quarter of the vertical fold, with minor wear on the other folds and in the borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not very distracting (and a talented restorer could touch them up without re-backing the poster).
