Description

The Invisible Man (Universal, 1933). Window Card (14" X 22"). One of the best films in the Universal Horror canon, this picture, directed by the visionary James Whale, made a superstar of Claude Rains virtually overnight, even though his face only appears in the last few moments of the movie. Based on the novel by H. G. Wells, this is the story of scientist Jack Griffin (Rains) who uses himself as a guinea pig in his experiments involving invisibility. He's successful in making himself vanish, but the serum has an adverse effect on his mind, sending him on a murderous rampage throughout a small English village. Paper from this title is some of the rarest of all the Universal Horror films, and is avidly sought by anxious collectors. This beautiful window card, which boasts exceptional color, has rounded corners, airbrushing in the top imprint area, and some slight colored pencil touch-ups in the top right image area, but these minor defects do nothing to detract from this exquisite piece. Don't disappear when the bidding starts; you know you want this rare and desirable piece! Very Fine+.
