Wells' The War of the Worlds, the classic 1953 Byron Haskin science fiction (sci-fi) Martian extraterrestrial alien invasion action thriller ("From the ends of the universe... they are reaching for YOU!"; produced by George Pal; loosely based on the classic novel by H.G. Wells; about seemingly unstoppable aliens invading the Earth) starring Gene Barry, Ann Robinson, Les Tremayne, Robert Cornthwaite, Lewis Martin, and Ann Codee 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 poster is somewhat brittle and it would not make sense to attempt to roll it, as the paper is fragile enough that rolling it might damage it. Because the foldlines are such that they have not diminished over time we will fold the insert prior to mailing and send it in a flat package. Note that the poster is not so fragile that it is "falling to pieces"! If it is handled carefully, it can absolutely be framed and enjoyed without any worry. Condition: good. The poster has darkened and become somewhat brittle with age (see above for a note about the shipping for this item) and there is separation and a small amount of tattering along the foldlines with some repaired with conservation tape from the back. There is a 2" vertical tear in the background right of center. There is paper loss in the blank border at lower right. There is an approximately 2" x 2" piece of thin cardboard glued to the back of each corner of the poster, but it does not appear to have any effect on the front. The poster is otherwise in generally nice condition and I imagine most collectors could happily display this classic sci-fi poster as it is, but of course if one chose to have it restored it would look fantastic!
