Auction History Result #002 PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE linen 1sh '58 Date Sold 3/19/2002Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Plan Nine From Outer Space, the 1958 Ed Wood (billed as "Edward D. Wood, Jr.") science fiction (sci-fi) zombie horror thriller ("Unspeakable horrors from outer space paralyze the living and resurrect the dead!"; some consider this to be the very worst movie ever!) starring Bela Lugosi, Maila Nurmi (billed as "Vampira"; as the Vampire Girl), Lyle Talbot, Gregory Walcott, Mona McKinnon, Duke Moore, Tom Keene, Carl Anthony, Paul Marco, Tor Johnson, Dudley Manlove, Joanna Lee, John Brechinridge, Norma McCarty, Lynn Lemon, Conrad Brooks, and Tom Mason (as "Ghoul Man with Cape Over Face"). Note that Lugosi died during the beginning of filming in 1956, but the ever resourceful Ed Wood (knowing his movie would be doomed without his top star) hired his wife Kathy's chiropractor to film Lugosi's scenes, and he dressed in a vampire-like outfit and held a cape high over his face, and no one knew the difference (and sadly, the chiropractor, Tom Mason, could not, of course, be credited on screen). There is some archival footage of Lugosi that Ed Wood used in the movie as well. 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: This poster has been professionally linenbacked. It now looks great, and most dealers would describe it as "fine (or mint) on linen". We have noted the defects that were restored below (and feel everyone should always do this!). Many collectors would not be aware of the restoration this poster has had unless it was specifically shown to them! Condition: fine. The poster has had the slightest restoration along the foldlines. I would doubt you could find a better copy of this poster!. Most of the linenbacked posters we sell were restored by the finest professionals. An expertly linenbacked poster will often appear "mint", as its defects have been made to "vanish". We are the only seller we are aware of who always tries to describe the condition of the poster prior to being linenbacked, so you are fully aware of what restoration was performed.
