Description

Son of Frankenstein/Bride of Frankenstein Combo (Realart, R-1949). Three Sheet (41" X 81").
When Realart acquired the Universal sound film library in 1948, this was one of the first of their many successful double-bills. An entirely new generation got to feast on all the best Universal monster films, two at a time...and on the cheap. Theatres were ecstatic, with these "classics" outperforming most of the brand new first run films. This "Phantom Monster Show" includes two of the best of Karloff's Frankenstein films. This striking three sheet has great color and clarity. The poster had large sections of missing paper (up to 1/2") along the left and bottom borders, and fold wear with chips out, all of which has been addressed with professional restoration. Very Good/Fine on Linen.
