Important Added Info: Note that this was a special poster printed in 1974 to promote the release of a 256 page book that contained 1,000 framed blow-ups and ALL the dialogue from this classic movie. Interestingly, the image on the poster (which is great artwork by Melo) does NOT appear on the book itself, which had a headshot photo of Karloff in make-up as the monster!
