Description

Abbott and Costello Go to Mars (Universal International, 1953). Very Fine- on Linen. One Sheet (27" X 41").
In spite of the film's title, stars Bud Abbott and Lou Costello never get to Mars. Instead, they accidentally launch a rocket ship that first takes them to New Orleans during Mardi Gras, and then, at the point of a bank robber's gun, to Venus, where they find a planet entirely populated by beautiful women! Anita Ekberg, one of the "Miss Universe Contest Beauties," makes a brief appearance as a Venusian guard. Prior to restoration, the poster showed pinholes, fold wear, and small tears. From the Modern Props Science Fiction Collection.
