An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Style B Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Abbott and Costello Meet the Invisible Man, the 1951 Charles Lamont science fiction (sci-fi) fantasy screwball horror comedy ("It's all New and a Riot too!"; "Hair raising! Howl raising! Hilarity!"; "You'll shiver... You'll shudder... You'll shout with laughter!"; incredibly loosely based on the classic novel by H.G. Wells) starring Bud Abbott, Lou Costello (Abbott and Costello), Nancy Guild, Adele Jergens, Arthur Franz (in the title role as the Invisible Man, Tommy Nelson), William Frawley, Sheldon Leonard, and Paul Maxey. Note that Costello is a detective in this movie, and he wears a deerstalker hat and smokes a pipe, in an obvious hommage to Sherlock Holmes! 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 poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good. The poster was never folded. Someone slashed the poster with a pencil diagonally at upper left and right and it has some creases and tears of varying lengths (generally 1" or less but some are larger) along portions of some edges that are mostly repaired with tape from the back. There are a few larger tears at right. It is likely that a talented professional could address the pencil marks and the poster could be backed and restored and it would look great, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it.
