An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Unknown Island, the 1948 Jack Bernhard science fiction (sci-fi) fantasy dinosaur adventure ("Spectacular! Living monsters of pre-history Alive before your eyes - In a hidden island in the Pacific!"; "Prehistoric Monsters of an unknown world invade the world of today!"; "So spectacular - It took one year to produce! See: Pre-historic denizens that defy the imagination! See: King tyrant lizards in deadly combat! See: Man's puny attempt to defeat monstrous beasts!"; "It's out of this world - Alive on a forbidden continent 60,000,000 years ago! Wonders never before beheld by man!"; "Colossal! A new world of adventures from a world of 60,000,000 years ago!"; "Alive--strange--stirring!") starring Virginia Grey, Philip Reed, Barton MacLane, Richard Denning, Richard Wessell, Daniel White, Phillip Nazir, and and Ray 'Crash' Corrigan (as the man in the really fake ape suit!). Note that Crash Corrigan made a REALLY wise investment in the 1930s, when he bought a "gorilla suit". In many of the movies in the 1940s where there is a fake gorilla, it is played by Crash Corrigan, no doubt because he could supply the suit! Also note that the movie was released by Film Classics, and that this company was the original releasing studio for this low budget fantasy sci-fi movie (they also distributed re-releases of better known titles, but they did do the first release of some low budget movies of the 1940s).

We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! Condition: good. The poster has a horizontal line of creases running through center (see our image). There is a faint ink pad stamp at right in the blank border. It is otherwise "all there" and 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.
