A Laminated Original Vintage Theatrical One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 38 3/4" [69 x 98 cm]) (Learn More) Beginning of the End, the 1957 Bert I. Gordon giant grasshopper insect science fiction (sci-fi) fantasy thriller ("New Thrills! New Shocks! New Terror!"; "Filmed In New HorrorScope!"; "'We may have to use the "A" bomb to destroy the giants!'") starring Peter Graves, Peggie Castle, Morris Ankrum, Thomas B. Henry, Than Wyenn, James Seay, Patricia Dean (not credited, but she is pictured prominently on many of the posters for this movie!), and Frank Wilcox 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 been laminated! It is quite likely that there is no way to reverse this process. However, I have seen many posters and lobby cards that have been laminated for over 20 years, and the lamination does not hurt the items in any way (and some of the posters were laminated as much as 40 years ago, so it certainly seems that if it were going to damage the item, it would have happened by now!), plus it seems to completely protect them, while allowing them to be easily displayed with no fear of damage. HOWEVER, PLEASE DO NOT BID ON THIS POSTER UNLESS YOU WANT TO PURCHASE A LAMINATED ITEM! Also note that this poster has been trimmed and it now measures 27" x 38 3/4" [69 x 98 cm]. Note that this laminated poster comes to us from a very longtime collector who, decades ago, had most of his collection laminated. As we said above, even though it has been a very long time since this was done, the posters this collector consigned (11 one-sheets and 8 inserts, in 19 separate auctions) likely look just as they did when he first had them laminated, so they certainly can be displayed and enjoyed. But they all have to be sent in very large flat packages (the one-sheets approximately 29" x 43", and the inserts approximately 16" x 38"), so bear this added expense in mind before bidding. Condition: good. Prior to lamination, all of the top and bottom blank borders was trimmed off, no doubt so that the laminated poster could fit in a frame afterwards. It had small paper loss at the bottom crossfold and some pretty minor fold and border wear. PLEASE DO NOT BID ON THIS POSTER UNLESS YOU WANT TO PURCHASE A LAMINATED ITEM!
