An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) The Old Dark House, the 1963 William Castle English/U.S. Hammer horror comedy thriller ("The murder mystery with a difference: You Die Laughing!"; "Open the door to a Nuthouse of Terror!"; "A killer-diller with a nuthouse of kooks!"; "The thriller-chiller with the key to a coffin-ful of laughter!"; "EveryBODY laughs!"; "Based on J.B. Priestley's Classic Novel of Suspense") starring Tom Poston, Robert Morley, Janette Scott, Joyce Grenfell, and Mervyn Johns. Note that Janette Scott is best remembered for her starring role in "Day of the Triffids" in 1963, which was immortalized in the lyrics of the song from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" that says "And I really got hot When I saw Janette Scott fight a triffid that spits poison and kills." She divorced her first husband and married Mel Torme in 1966, which pretty much ended her career, as she quickly had two children. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the top crossfold and some tiny creases in the left of the top foldline and some minor wear on the other folds. There was some minor border wear. The restorer linenbacked the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not very distracting (and any restorer could easily touch them up without re-backing the poster). Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well. Learn More about condition grades
