Artist: Jack Thurston Important Added Info: Note that most one-sheets for this movie that we have previously sold have a large corrective credits snipe over the top left tagline area. This was because that long tagline contained the sentence "Filmed in Giant Panamation". A knowledgeable collector tells us that "Panamation" was simply another name for Harryhausen's Super-Dynamation process. However, it is likely copyright issues with Panavision caused the studio to issue the snipe. In addition, not all of the one-sheets have this tagline (some with a snipe, and some without, and of course, the snipe could be removed). Some of the one-sheets look the same as the poster described above, except that the top tagline area at left has the word "COLOR" instead of "GIANT PANAMATION". This poster has the same NSS number and information as all the others, so obviously the studio, in addition to putting snipes on posters, also printed up a new poster with the corrected tagline, but did not bother to note it in any way on the front or back (for instance, stamping "REVISED", as was sometimes done). But most collectors consider all the different versions to be from the first release, and they don't seem to put a different valuation on the different kinds. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had fine surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this period). It had a tape stain in each corner and a few pinholes in the borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
