Description

Werewolf of London (Universal, 1935). Half Sheet (22" X 28").
In one of Universal's earliest horror classics, Henry Hull stars as the ill-fated Dr. Glendon who is viciously attacked by the hideous beast Yogami (Warner Oland), while on an expedition in Tibet. When he returns to London, Glendon understands his condition transforms him into a werewolf during each full moon, and desperately seeks a cure before he attacks more innocent victims. The great Jack Pierce created the superb makeup for this ground breaking film, which was the first to deal with the horror of lycanthropy, paving the way for a genre that has captured audiences for decades. Valerie Hobson co-stars as the doctor's terrified wife. This superb half sheet has pinholes in the corners, fold wear, a chip in the top right corner, and a minor one at the left edge. These are minor issues which do not detract from this rare and very special sheet, which will be the envy of every classic horror fan. The poster has been authenticated and graded by MP Grading and is accompanied with a certificate. Folded, Very Fine-.
