An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Chapter #11 (The Fatal Mistake) One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) The Masked Marvel, the 1943 Spencer Gordon Bennet (billed as "Spencer Bennet") World War II (WWII) insurance fraud crime action spy espionage serial ("A Republic Serial in 12 Chapters"; "Original Screenplay by Royal Cole, Ronald Davidson, Basil Dickey, Jesse Duffy, Grant Nelson, George Plympton, and Joseph Poland") starring William Forrest, Louise Currie, Johnny Arthur, Rod Bacon, Richard Clarke, Roy Barcroft, Anthony Warde, and Tom Steele (who plays The Masked Marvel throughout the movie, but see below for more!). Note that the plot of this serial concerned an insurance company's investigators who investigate Japanese sabotage of war factories. There is a mysterious super hero type person called The Masked Marvel, and the trick of the movie is that they reveal to you that he is really one of the four insurance investigators, but the audience does not learn who he is, and the four men wear identical suits throughout the movie, so that you can't tell by their clothing (and actually, stuntman Tom Steele plays him throughout)!
