Auction History Result 6f0385 HOUSE OF DRACULA Aust 1sh R1950s completely different art of all monsters, ultra rare! Date Sold 4/9/2024![]() Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Undated (probably 1950s) Re-Release Theatrical Folded Australian One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 26 3/4" x 39 3/4" [68 x 101 cm]) (Learn More) House of Dracula, the 1945 Erle C. Kenton Universal vampire monster horror thriller ("All new... All together!"; "Frankenstein's Monster, Wolf Man, Dracula, Mad Doctor, Hunchback"; the seventh Universal Frankenstein movie, and this was the second "all-star" movie, a sequel of sorts to "House of Frankenstein", with all of its best monsters brought together in a single movie!) starring Lon Chaney Jr. (as Lawrence Talbot/The Wolf Man), Martha O'Driscoll, John Carradine (as Count Dracula), Lionel Atwill, Onslow Stevens (taking over the role of The Mad Doctor from Boris Karloff), Glenn Strange (as Frankenstein's monster, uncredited on the "House of Frankenstein" posters, and credited here, but still not receiving the credit he deserved!), Jane Adams (as the hunchback nurse; oddly, she was sometimes billed by Universal as "Poni Adams"!), and Ludwig Stossel. Note that once again Universal has an extremely politically incorrect "hunchback" as a monster on par with Frankenstein, Dracula, and The Wolf Man, but in "House of Frankenstein", the hunchback was a man, and in this movie, the hunchback is a beautiful woman and a key plot point is that the mad doctor will "make her beautiful" by surgically fixing her hunch back! 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 an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned this circa 1950s re-release Australian one-sheet in all our years of auctioning! Condition: fair to good. The poster is in lesser condition. There are several defects scattered along the borders and foldlines/crossfolds, and there are one or more areas of significant foldline and/or crossfold separation. There are many stains in the poster, as well as creases and scuffs (see our image). The poster is in need of restoration. Certainly a top restorer can repair the defects described above, and after, the very rare poster will display really well, but please bear in mind the poster's many defects and the cost of restoration before placing a bid.
