Who among us can afford the zillion dollar 1931 original one-sheet from this horror classic? To me, this 1960s re-release, with an excellent image, makes a very attractive alternative (especially considering that it is in relatively nice condition)! Condition: very good. There are pinholes in the blank corners and tape stains in the top blank corners. There are smudges and tiny creases in the vertical foldline between the middle crossfold and the bottom crossfold. There is a series of tiny tears in the extreme right 6" of the top foldline in the green background under the "IN" of "FRANKENSTEIN" and continuing to near the right blank border. Other than the above basically minor defects, the poster is in nice condition! Its defects are the sort that respond very well to restoration. After linenbacking by a top professional, the poster would look fantastic, and there would be little paint anywhere on the poster! Learn More about condition grades
