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! Condition: very good. The poster had very minor fold wear. There was an area of paper loss in the left of the top border and in the right of the top border, but both were only blank white paper. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and the missing paper in the top blank border was replaced, and the poster displays well!
