But a revelation in thrills and terrific suspense"; a totally bizarre movie about a scientist who goes to Africa with an expedition and finds a meteorite that emits Radium X rays, which he touches, and he absorbs a near-fatal dose, which means that he then kills anyone he touches; another scientist discovers a somewhat cure, which requires he take daily injections of a powerful drug, which slowly turns him mad, and meanwhile, the second scientist starts taking credit for the discovery, which, in controlled doses, can heal blind people!) starring Boris Karloff ("as the luminous man"), Bela Lugosi, Frances Drake, Frank Lawton, Walter Kingsford, Beulah Bondi, Violet Kemble Cooper, Nydia Westman, and Etta McDaniel (Hattie McDaniel's sister!)

The poster had tears and paper loss on parts of several folds, with pinholes, tears, and small paper loss around the edges. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. If I owned this rare poster, I would have a talented restorer perform additional restoration, either with or without re-backing it. Bear its condition in mind and look at our super-sized image before bidding. Learn More about condition grades
