A Limited Edition Signed Mondo Artist's Proof Art Print (measures 24" x 36" [61 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Forbidden Planet, the classic 1956 Fred McLeod Wilcox science fiction (sci-fi) outer space robot monster thriller ("Amazing!"; "In Cinemascope and Color"; "Based on the story by Irving Block & Allen Adler"; very loosely adapted from William Shakespeare's "The Tempest"; about space men who journey to a distant planet, and they find that all the members of the original expedition have died, except for one man and his daughter, and they have discovered the secrets of a long lost civilization called "The Krell", which dwarfs anything humans have ever discovered, but there is a very dark side to those secrets that is soon revealed) starring Walter Pidgeon, Anne Francis, Leslie Nielsen, Warren Stevens, Jack Kelly, Richard Anderson, Earl Holliman (as the cook, who was put in the movie for comic relief), Robby the Robot (billed as "Introducing Robby the Robot"), James Drury, and Frankie Darro (who was inside the robot suit until he was fired early in the production for showing up inebriated and almost damaging the expensive prop). Note that after Robby the Robot appeared in this movie, he had another movie role in "The Invisible Boy", and then he appeared in a slightly modified version as the robot in TV's "Lost in Space". On November 21, 2017, the original "Robby the Robot" was auctioned, and it sold for $5.375 million! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Laurent Durieux Important Added Info: Note that this is a special "Mondo" (an Austin, Texas gallery specializing in screen print art) tribute movie poster and it is not theater-used! It has been personally autographed (signed) by Laurent Durieux and is a very limited "artist's proof" that was printed in a much lesser amount for the artist by the printer (note that "AP" written on the print and the Roman numerals III/XV [3/15]). Since AP's are "closer to the artist's hand" they tend to be much more valuable than the prints of a signed and numbered limited edition! Condition: very good to fine. The limited edition art print is printed on a heavyweight, deluxe paper and is in excellent condition! Learn More about condition grades
