Description

The Day the Earth Stood Still (20th Century Fox, 1951). One Sheet (27" X 41"). One of the "Big Three" of science-fiction/horror one sheets of the 1950s, this stunning poster from Robert Wise's intelligent classic is perhaps the most desirable, commanding record prices whenever it appears at auction. This example had a couple of pinholes in each corner of the black background and there was a bit of fold separation along the bottom of the vertical fold. There has been minor color touch to the fold lines and to a small hole in the background by the second "The" in the title. The expert restoration makes this wonderful example appear near mint! Very Fine- on Linen.
