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.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster was printed in the United States for use at theaters with Spanish speaking audiences (this was done most by MGM, starting in the 1930s, but it was done by the other major studios as well, and often the posters would have the exact same image as the English language poster, except the writing would be in Spanish, and often there would be an added "Toda en Espanol!", meaning "Entirely in Spanish!", printed within the image). Condition: fair. There are many tiny circular holes and some thin strips of paper loss in the center of the image, and some around the edges of the image (they appear to be some sort of insect damage). The poster has some water staining throughout and many border defects. Obviously, this poster has many significant defects, but after proper restoration by a talented restorer, it will display great!
