Auction History Result 3x478 MAN BEAST 1/2sh '56 great artwork of sub-human Yeti monster carrying its sexy female victim! Date Sold 2/17/2009 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28") (Learn More) Man Beast, the 1956 Jerry Warren science fiction (sci-fi) horror thriller ("Hair-raising excitement in the icy lair of the man-like creatures roaming the roof of the world!"; "Bestial Monster Madness!"; "See: Death-drop of 21,000 feet by panicked climber! See: Most daring mountain climbing ever filmed! See: Women stalked and captured for breeding by Yeti monsters"; "Sub-human creatures-survivors of the ice age... Titans of the terror that live today!"; "Thrills and chills scream from the screen as sub-human monsters go on a rampaging blood-binge!"; "You read about them in Time, True, Argosy, Newsweek, Pageant, Popular Science Magazines") starring Rock Madison, Virigina Maynor, Tom Maruzzi, Lloyd Nelson, George Wells Lewis, George Skaff, Jack Haffner, and Wong Sing. Note that "Rock Madison" was a name coined by director Warren to sound like a cool movie star name (it was a combination of Rock Hudson and Guy Madison). He intended to re-name star Tom Maruzzi as "Rock Madison", but apparently Maruzzi wanted to be billed under his own name (you can't blame him!) and Warren ended up top billing Rock Madison and Maruzzi got third billing. Since the movie has a yeti in it, one could imagine that the person who played the yeti was "Rock Madison", but actually, many actors took turns wearing the yeti suit, so this is an odd case of a movie having a top-billed actor who did not exist and was not in the movie!

Most half-sheet posters were folded once horizontally and once vertically right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded example of most half-sheets, especially from before 1970! Condition: fair to good. There are a couple of paper tape repairs on the back of the left and right borders. Learn More about condition grades
