Description

This Island Earth (Universal International, 1955). One Sheet (27" X 41").
The planet Metaluna is under attack by hostile forces, and so a group of scientists travel to the relatively backward planet Earth to recruit technological assistance. Kidnapped back to Metaluna are Rex Reason and Faith Domergue, who dodge space missiles and a big-brained mutant. This spectacular science fiction epic was the first big science fiction film to be shot in Technicolor, and was one of the last three-strip Technicolor movies. Offered here is the classic one sheet with bold graphics by famed artist Reynold Brown, and exciting artwork. The poster had staple holes in the border and background, edge wear along the left border, tears in the top border, some of which extend into the image area, light fold wear with small chips at the bottom centerfold, and chips in the top and left border, which have been addressed with limited restoration; also, the linen has been trimmed to the border. Fine+ on Linen.
