Description

Creature from the Black Lagoon (Universal International, 1954). One Sheet (27" X 41"). One of the greatest monster films of all time, this was Universal's re-entry into the genre, updating the horror film for the post-atomic age of the 1950s. The result was an absolute masterpiece. Discovered during a scientific expedition to the Amazon, the Gill Man proved popular enough to star in several sequels, and remains a classic monster icon to this day. Offered here is the highly desirable one sheet for this great movie, about as clean as one is likely to find. Unbacked and unrestored, this is an incredible find, appearing unused and virtually like new. If you insist on nothing but the best, you won't want to miss this exquisite gem. Near Mint/Mint.
