An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) The Incredible Shrinking Man, the classic 1957 Jack Arnold science fiction (sci-fi) miniaturization fantasy adventure thriller ("A fascinating adventure into the unknown!"; "The most incredible story the screen has ever told!"; "Every hour he gets smaller.... Smaller... Smaller and moment by moment the terror mounts!..."; "Victim of Weird mist!"; "Day by Day he shrinks!"; "Science is baffled!"; "Cat becomes monster!"; "Terror at every turn!"; "Deadly spider attacks!"; "Lost in a floods fury!"; a highly literate screenplay by Richard Matheson from his own novel; surprisingly, the studio did not force Matheson to tack on an artificial "happy" ending, and it is lucky, for most people think the movie's actual ending is wonderful!; the special effects are primitive by today's standards, but they are very powerful, and work just fine) starring Grant Williams (in the title role), Randy Stuart, April Kent, Paul Langton, Raymond Bailey, William Schallert, and Orangey (as the cat Butch; Orangey was also Cat in "Breakfast At Tiffany's!") NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Reynold Brown Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this three-sheet, and only one in the last 8 years! Note that this three-sheet, as well as the six-sheet and the insert, have a completely different image than that of the one-sheet, and it has great Reynold Brown art of the shrunken man fighting the giant cat. Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Finally, note that the theater that used this poster taped the pieces together before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used posters in multiple pieces). Condition: good. The theater that used this poster taped the pieces together with masking tape across the back of the top of the bottom section before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used posters in multiple pieces). This caused tape bleed-through across that area (which falls mostly in the background between "THE INCREDIBLE" and "SHRINKING MAN", but it does affect the top of the "SHR" of the title. There are also small pieces of masking tape that were put on the back of parts of the borders to attach it to a wall, and those areas also bleed through to the front. Other than this defect, the poster is generally in nice condition. Obviously, a talented restorer can address this, but bear it in mind and look closely at our super-sized image before bidding on this poster. Learn More about condition grades
