Appears in Vintage Hollywood Posters 7 CATALOG SOLD OUT The image at right appears in the auction catalog we published as shown above and was sold long ago and we do NOT have it available for purchase. An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 22" x 28") (Learn More) The She-Creature, the 1956 Edward L. Cahn horror science fiction (sci-fi) thriller ("It Can and Did Happen! Based on authentic Facts you've been reading about!"; "Hypnotized! Reincarnated as a Monster from Hell!"; "The Startling disclosure about Reincarnation and Age Regression!"; "Based on an original idea by Jerry Zigmond"; about a scientist who is able to cause his assistant to revert to a monster she was in a previous life millions of years before, and the monster kills people, and the scientist teams with a rich guy to profit off of the killings) starring Chester Morris, Marla English (in the title role as the assistant who becomes the She-Creature), Tom Conway, Cathy Downs, Lance Fuller, Ron Randell, Frieda Inescort, Paul Dubov, and Paul Blaisdell (as the man in the She-Creature suit). Note that Chester Morris had been a very successful leading man in the 1930s and he successfully transitioned to stardom in B-movies in the 1940s, most notably the Boston Blackie series, but his career was coming to an end when he made this super low budget movie, and, in fact, he retired after it, coming out of retirement for a small role 14 years later in The Great White Hope, just before his passing.

Most half-sheet posters were folded twice (once horizontally and once vertically) right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded copy of most half-sheets, especially from before 1970! Condition: very good. two lines of uneven horizontal creases running across the upper center of the poster through the neck and upper chest of the creature and the girl; there are similar creases through the lower middle of the image; these creases were probably caused by the poster being roughly handled while being rolled and unrolled, but they are truly not very distracting at all; there is a red mark in the right blank corner; there are creases, light stains and smudges, and a few tiny tears around the edges of the poster. The poster is in better condition than the above makes it sound! From any distance away, its defects are not distracting, and, as it is unfolded and has none of those distracting folds, I would think most collectors could happily display this poster on their wall!
