Auction History Result 6k0131 UNDEAD 1sh 1957 best Albert Kallis art of huge skeleton & sexy Pamela Duncan, Roger Corman! Date Sold 11/12/2020 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) The Undead, the 1957 Roger Corman monster horror thriller ("Terror... that screams from the grave!"; "A thousand years of naked terror!") starring Pamela Duncan, Richard Garland, Allison Hayes, Val Dufour, Mel Welles, and Billy Barty (as The Imp). Note that there is a very unusual aspect to the one-sheet! The words of the title were created with each of the letters cut off half-way, with the bottom half of each letter "mis-matching" the top half of each letter! One sees this with three-sheets where the bottom piece and the top piece were not printed correctly, and they don't match up, but in this case, this was something that was done intentionally (perhaps to give the poster a kind of "spooky" look to it and fortunately, on the actual three-sheet for this movie, the area where the two pieces join falls 2" above the mismatch"; it would have been really funny if they had made the mismatch be exactly where the two pieces join on the three-sheet)! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Albert Kallis Important Added Info: Note that we have seen several examples of this poster and most of them have a "lightened" appearance, but upon examining them closely, we think it was surely made this way. We have also seen one example with darker colors. We don't know why this is, but we suspect that the majority of the posters had been printed in this "lightened" manner when someone at the printer (or the studio) decided the colors needed to be darkened and so they adjusted it. Whatever the case, know that the poster we are offering here appears as originally printed and is NOT faded in any way. Condition: good. The poster has discoloration scattered in various areas (more so at upper right but there are patches of it in some other areas including the "E" in the larger title). Someone drew a pencil line in the skull's face at upper center (to the right of the vertical foldline). After proper restoration the poster will display well, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it. Learn More about condition grades
