Auction History Result #139 MAN FROM PLANET X insert '51 Edgar Ulmer Date Sold 1/29/2002Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Insert (measures 14" x 34 1/4") (Learn More) The Man From Planet X, the 1951 Edgar Ulmer UFO space alien science fiction (sci-fi) horror melodrama ("The Weirdest Visitor the Earth has ever seen!"; "The deadliest enemy the world has ever known!"; "Written and produced by Aubrey Wisberg and Jack Pollexfen"; about a scientist who discovers a planet is approaching the Earth, and then a spaceship lands in a remote part of Scotland, and the daughter of the scientist tries to make contact with the alien onboard!) starring Robert Clarke, Margaret Field, Raymond Bond, William Schallert, Roy Engel, and Pat Goldin (billed as "and the Strange Man from Planet X"). Note that reading the plot summary above would make you think that this movie was a rip-off of The Day the Earth Stood Still, but actually, it came out BEFORE that, and also before most of the 1950s sci-fi greats. It was shot in six days on a budget of $43,000, a tiny fraction of the budgets for "The Thing From Another World" ($1.6 million) and "The Day The Earth Stood Still" ($1.2 million), and while it lacks in special effects, it still was a groundbreaking movie! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good to very good. The poster had some of the top and bottom blank borders trimmed (see below). There are three pieces out of the lower right blank border. There is scuffing at the bottom edge of the image background. There is a 5" tear in the center of. Note that this insert measures 14" x 34 1/4", yet it does not look like it was trimmed, because the poster originally had an abnormally large blank top and bottom borders. Perhaps the previous owner of this poster trimmed some of the blank areas to fit a frame. It is approximately 1/2" of the bottom blank border that is trimmed, and 1 1/4" of the top blank border that was trimmed. Note that this trimmed is no way affected any of the small writing at the bottom of the poster. It was solely blank area that was trimmed. Learn More about condition grades
