Auction History Result 1a2171 UNDEAD 1/2sh 1957 Albert Kallis art of huge skeleton & sexy Pamela Duncan, Roger Corman! Date Sold 10/31/2021 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) The Undead, the 1957 Roger Corman monster horror thriller ("Terror... that screams from the grave!"; "A thousand years of naked terror!") starring Pamela Duncan, Richard Garland, Allison Hayes, Val Dufour, Mel Welles, and Billy Barty (as The Imp). Note that there is a very unusual aspect to the one-sheet! The words of the title were created with each of the letters cut off half-way, with the bottom half of each letter "mis-matching" the top half of each letter! One sees this with three-sheets where the bottom piece and the top piece were not printed correctly, and they don't match up, but in this case, this was something that was done intentionally (perhaps to give the poster a kind of "spooky" look to it and fortunately, on the actual three-sheet for this movie, the area where the two pieces join falls 2" above the mismatch"; it would have been really funny if they had made the mismatch be exactly where the two pieces join on the three-sheet)! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Albert Kallis Important Added Info: Note that while we have previously auctioned four examples of this half-sheet, we have only auctioned one in the last 8 years! Also 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: very good. The poster was never folded. It has a tiny tear in the left and lower right blank borders and there are some faint scuffs at center left (and in some tiny, not very noticeable areas). There are a few faint smudges around the edges, but otherwise it is in pretty nice condition and it displays well! Learn More about condition grades
