Appears in Vintage Hollywood Posters 6 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. Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Queen of Outer Space, the 1958 Edward Bernds science fiction (sci-fi) fantasy space adventure thriller ("26 Million Miles Through The Unknown Universe -- To The Indescribable Terrors and Beauties of Planet Venus!"; "Mankind's First Fantastic Flight to Venus -- the Female Planet!"; "From a story by Ben Hecht"; "Screenplay by Charles Beaumont") starring Zsa Zsa Gabor (often mistaken for playing the title role!), Eric Fleming, Dave Willock, Laurie Mitchell (in the title role as Queen Yllana), Lisa Davis, and Paul Birch. Note that Ben Hecht, who is given credit for the story, and Charles Beaumont, credited with the screenplay, were two of the most talented writers ever to work in Hollywood. So how did they end up working on this low budget cheesy grade Z movie? Legend has it that Hecht told the story at a party, and someone who overheard it started making a movie of it, and Hecht heard about it and demanded screen credit! As to Charles Beaumont, it surely was the low point of his otherwise illustrious career! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good to fine. there were seven pieces of tape in the blank borders; the tape is gone but there are yellow stains where the tape was (solely in the blank white borders); there is a diagonal crease in the top right corner (going through the right end of the image) and a similar crease in the lower right corner; there are creases and faint smudges around the edges of the poster; there are creases down the vertical foldline (to the left and right of the regular foldline); The poster is in better condition than the above makes it sound! The image area of the poster is in nice unrestored condition, and the colors are bright. Its defects are mostly in the borders and would vanish if it were linenbacked and the poster would look wonderful! Learn More about condition grades
