A 1951 Re-Release Theatrical Folded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Dracula, the classic 1931 Tod Browning Universal vampire monster horror thriller ("The Greatest of all Horror Thrillers"; "The Vampire Thriller!"; "The story of the strangest passion the world has ever known!"; "Do vampires really exist?"; "From the famous novel & play by Bram Stoker") starring Bela Lugosi (in the title role as Count Dracula), David Manners, Helen Chandler, Dwight Frye (if there had been a Best Supporting Actor Academy Award in 1931, Frye would have surely won it for his wild over-the-top portrayal as Renfield!), Edward Van Sloan (as Professor Abraham Van Helsing), Frances Dade, and Herbert Bunston NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never auctioned this 1951 re-release half-sheet before! Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good. The poster has many tears and small areas of paper loss in the left, top, and right blank border. It has some fine surface paper loss and creases along the folds. It had brown paper tape on the back of the lower left, and someone roughly removed it, causing some tears and small paper loss in the top of the "DRAC" of the title (and there were some light stains on the back of the poster that bled through to the front in the bottom of the "DRA"). Someone performed slight amateur restoration to the front of that area. If I owned this poster, I would surely give it to a top professional. After proper restoration, it will look fantastic, and it will mostly only have paint restoration in the title and border areas described above. Learn More about condition grades
