Description

The Man with Nine Lives (Columbia, 1940). Half Sheet (22" X 28").
One of several features from Columbia's "Mad Doctor" movies featuring Boris Karloff, this one has Roger Pryor as a scientist working on curing cancer with cryogenic freezing therapy. After extensive work with limited results, he seeks out Dr. Leon Kravaal (Karloff), another radical colleague who mysteriously disappeared almost a decade before. He finds him alright... but frozen! Once revived, other details begin to surface in this classic mystery/sci-fi from the 1940s. This colorful half sheet is a Heritage first. Signs of handling include pinholes in the top border, bottom edge wear, smudging and a tear in the left border, faint water stain in the bottom border, small crossfold separation, and paper residue in the bottom border. Folded, Fine/Very Fine.
