Auction History Result 4w0382 MONSTER MAKER 1/2sh 1944 scientist J. Carrol Naish, Birell & sick Ralph Morgan! Date Sold 8/3/2023 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Monster Maker, the 1944 Sam Newfield mad scientist acromegaly science fiction (sci-fi) horror thriller starring J. Carrol Naish, Ralph Morgan, Tala Birell, Wanda McKay, Terry Frost, Ace the Wonder Dog, Glenn Strange, and Ray 'Crash' Corrigan (uncredited as the gorilla monster!). 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! Also note that Ace the Wonder Dog had his first role in 1938's "Blind Alibi" (playing a seeing eye dog). He appeared in 15 movies stretching over 8 years. If anyone knows more about Ace the Wonder Dog, please e-mail us and we will post it here. 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 is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned one in all our years of auctioning (and now that very same poster has been reconsigned to us for this auction, so it is still the only example we have ever auctioned!). Note also that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good. The poster has heavy fold and border wear and some surface paper loss along the ends of the horizontal fold (which has separation in each end that has been repaired with tape from the back.) It has some smudges and scuffs scattered in various areas. After proper restoration the very rare poster will display well, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it. Learn More about condition grades
