Auction History Result 1r757 ROCKETSHIP X-M 1sh '50 Lloyd Bridges in the screen's FIRST story of man's conquest of space! Date Sold 5/29/2012 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Rocketship X-M ("*Expedition Moon"), the 1950 Kurt Neumann science fiction (sci-fi) space thriller ("The screen's First story of man's conquest of space!"; "Expedition Moon"; "The Future is Here!"; "See Strange planets! Strange People! See Man's greatest dream come true! See a moon's-eye view of the Earth!") starring Lloyd Bridges, Osa Massen, John Emery, Noah Beery Jr., Hugh O'Brian, and Morris Ankrum. Note that, because of post-production issues (and the fact that this movie was rushed though production in 18 days) this film beat George Pal's Destination Moon to theaters by a few weeks, and became the "screen's first story of man's conquest of space". 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 this is one of the weirder one-sheets we have ever seen! We have sold other examples of this poster, and they have an asterisk printed after the title, with a horizontal box under the title that explains that the title means "Expedition Moon". Yet this one-sheet has the asterisk and that box blanked out with a blue color, and it is clearly in the actual printing! Perhaps this is an alternate style one-sheet (perhaps they decided that explaining the title like that was wrong to do, and so they printed a new batch of one-sheets with that area blotted out). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here! Condition: fair. The poster is somewhat brittle and there is much tattering and separation along the foldlines and edges and there are some areas of paper loss scattered throughout. The poster was folded in half an extra time resulting in a vertical foldline at left and right. There are some pieces of masking tape on the back of the poster but they do not appear to be there for any restoration purpose. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept that it will need restoration before it can be properly displayed. Learn More about condition grades
