Auction History Result 8f0980 QUEEN OF OUTER SPACE 1sh 1958 Zsa Zsa Gabor on Venus, by Ben Hecht & Charles Beaumont! Date Sold 4/13/2021 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Queen of Outer Space, the 1958 Edward Bernds science fiction (sci-fi) fantasy space adventure thriller ("26 Million Miles Through The Unknown Universe -- To The Indescribable Terrors and Beauties of Planet Venus!"; "Mankind's First Fantastic Flight to Venus -- the Female Planet!"; "From a story by Ben Hecht"; "Screenplay by Charles Beaumont") starring Zsa Zsa Gabor (often mistaken for playing the title role!), Eric Fleming, Dave Willock, Laurie Mitchell (in the title role as Queen Yllana), Lisa Davis, and Paul Birch. Note that Ben Hecht, who is given credit for the story, and Charles Beaumont, credited with the screenplay, were two of the most talented writers ever to work in Hollywood. So how did they end up working on this low budget cheesy grade Z movie? Legend has it that Hecht told the story at a party, and someone who overheard it started making a movie of it, and Hecht heard about it and demanded screen credit! As to Charles Beaumont, it surely was the low point of his otherwise illustrious career! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. There is some purple grease pencil or crayon writing and a slash on the back at upper left and it partially slightly bleeds through to the front in Gabor's face (see our image). There is a censor stamp at lower right to the left of Gabor's credit (see our image). There are pinholes around the edges (some are torn or enlarged due to rough removal) and there are some stickers and glue stains on the back (some of the glue is still tacky and one should use care when unfolding this poster). There is light fold wear. Fortunately the poster is otherwise mostly "all there" and still colorful, and after proper restoration the poster will display well. Learn More about condition grades
