A 1956 Re-Release Theatrical Linenbacked Chapter #2 (The Edge of Doom) One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More)

The Monster and the Ape, the 1945 Howard Bretherton science fiction (sci-fi) horror serial ("Amazing! Fantastic! Weird! Thrilling!"; "A Columbia Chapter Play") starring Robert Lowery, George Macready, Ralph Morgan, Carole Mathews, Willie Best, and Ray Corrigan (uncredited as "Thor" the ape!). Note that Crash Corrigan made a REALLY wise investment in the 1930s, when he bought a "gorilla suit". In many of the movies in the 1940s where there is a fake gorilla, it is played by Crash Corrigan, no doubt because he could supply the suit!

Artist: Glenn Cravath
Important Added Info: Note that the one-sheet says "A COLUMBIA SUPER SERIAL REPRINT" in the bottom center of the poster. This was a terminology used by Columbia Pictures at this time for some re-releases, and it has caused some collectors to be confused! This one-sheet is the original poster from the 1956 re-release of this movie, and is NOT a "reprint"!
