More terrible than terror!"; "Warning ! Don't see 'Peeping Tom' unless you are prepared to see the screaming shock and raw terror in the faces of those marked for death! See it from the beginning!"; "Do you know what the most Frightening thing in the world is...?"; "An adventure into terror"; "What made this the most diabolical murder weapon ever used?"; "marked for death by Peeping Tom - to look meant danger to smile meant death!"; "Can you see yourself in this picture?

You'll live that kind of excitement, suspense, horror, when you watch 'Peeping Tom'."; "Don't dare tell the ending to anyone - you'll be blamed for nightmares!"; "Original Story and Screenplay by Leo Marks"; an extremely unusual and often repellent movie about a psychologist who uses his son for his experiments, and his son grows up to be a twisted killer; some people think this is a really wonderful film while others despise it) starring Karlheinz Bohm (billed as "Carl Boehm"), Moira Shearer, Anna Massey, Maxine Audley, Brenda Bruce, Esmond Knight, Bartlett Mullins, Shirley Anne Field, Michael Goodlife, Martin Miller, Pamela Green, Jack Watson, Nigel Davenport, Brian Wallace, and Susan Travers. Note that the U.S. posters for this movie have a 1961 NSS number on them, but the movie did not open in the U.S. until May of 1962. We imagine that this delay was caused by the controversy over the movie. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we believe that this poster, which is a "country of origin" poster for this English movie, is not from the first release of this movie in 1960. That is because we have auctioned a different example of this poster that looks extremely similar, but which has more color than this one does. We think the other poster is from the 1960 first release and that this poster is likely from a quick 1960s re-release. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Note that in recent months we auctioned a collection of sexploitation one-sheets that included many rare titles from a single collector, and last month we auctioned the last of that collection. NOW, we have been consigned a different collection which includes even more very rarely seen titles! In this set of auctions we auctioned the first group of one-sheet from this new collection, and there are 148 different ones(all are in separate auctions), and they include a number of posters that we have only auctioned once or twice before. There are also a number with great images or taglines. This is an excellent opportunity to add one or more of these rare one-sheets to your collection, and, like the previous collection we auctioned, this consignor also only had one of each title, so on the rare ones, it may be quite some time before we offer the same title again! Condition: very good. The poster has light fold and border wear and the top and bottom edges were lightly folded back at one time. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and it displays well!
