An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) The Beast with One Million Eyes, the 1955 David Kramarsky horror thriller ("An unspeakable horror... Destroying... Terrifying!"; "Filmed for wide screen in Terror-scope"; "Screaming terror!") starring Paul Birch, Lorna Thayer, Dona Cole, Bruce Whitmore (in the title role as the Beast; billed as "and the Beast"), and Leonard Tarver. In case you were wondering, the "beast" did not actually have a million eyes (or even close)! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Albert Kallis Important Added Info: Note that this poster is one of the most commonly censored 1950s posters! Apparently, the artwork image of sexy Lorna Thayer wearing a 3-piece nightie that showed much of her cleavage and midriff was just TOO much for most 1950s movie theaters, and many of them covered her body in some way, sometimes carefully painting a black garment over much of Thayer's body, thus not offending the 1956 people who saw this movie outside the theater! This particular poster was not censored in any way, which makes it even more desirable! Condition: good. The poster has creases and scuffs scattered throughout, with pinholes and stains scattered around the edges. Someone put tape on the back of each crossfold, where there was separation and tiny paper loss, and on the back of some of the border defects. There was tape on the back of the top center of the poster, where there was a tear going into the art, and a small piece of tape to the left of that, and both pieces of tape are long gone, but they left tape stains in those areas. There are also a few stains scattered in the image. The poster has clear problems, but it is an excellent candidate for restoration, but bear in mind its many defects and the cost of restoration before placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
